This was the very same time when computers were being invented, very much based on the idea of modeling the brain -- of "intelligent machinery," as Alan Turing called it, one of the fathers of computer science.
Genau damals wurden auch Computer erfunden, hauptsächlich auf Basis von Nachbildungen des Gehirns -- "intelligente Maschinen", wie sie Alan Turing nannte, einer der Urväter der Infomatik.
