I think what he was trying to say is that, coming from africa, he hadn't been educated on computers the way that some other countries are. For him it was more of an exploratory process, which helped him to see it from an outside perspective.
But the first quote, I belive, was more about the african environment than africans themselves. It's a very dynamic and adaptive environment and I belive Brian Eno was just commenting on the need for more of that in CPU's.

i feel like the commentator was a bit of an ass at the end. i know what he means - what does this have to do with africa? is there anything characteristically african about trying to build a neural network or a brain using transistors? ... other than the fact that you're from africa? we'll likely see in a decade or two from the students he trains and the failures and successes of the work. maybe africa characterizes his audacity, and stubbornness that it takes to do science

Possibly. Its called quantum computers. It the idea, that instead of storing data in bits, we should attempt to store in it in a more efficient quibit thereby streamline computer processing power even more. It goes into ideas of quantum physics of entanglement and superposition. Partly meaning matter exists in pairs and can exists in several physical locations at once. If you do something to one half of a matter pair, the other half, no matter where it is in universe, will exhibit the same chang

I think the problem is the "programming". You can reproduce brains with computers today, a friend of me has just finished his thesis about a certain type of subsystem. The hard thing is to connect the different systems. By now they know quite exactly how the brain is built, but they do not understand the connections between the neurons fully. So you can build a brain if you figure that out, however, you're right with the current technology it will be a (ten)thousandth of the speed of the brain.

how about cuantum (propably not the right spelling) computers? i dont know alot about them just heard some science dude say that it will be an alternative for silicon.

They already have a replacement for silicon.
It's called the human brain (and other organic materials as mentioned by biotekslime). This presentation and others like it are preparing us for a machine-human interface. There have already been conferences on brainchipping the population, such as the one at loyola uni. This is about creating slaves, its not about helping any of us.
If you retain critical thinking abilities, I urge you never to take an implant.
