neuralography

The practice of making AI-generated artwork (by using a neural network).

Neuralography has really taken off, there are a lot of art galleries showing this new form of art

Neuralism

A philosophical model which attempts to ground human experience in neuro-chemistry and the organization of the human brain. It was first coined by therealdandan and circulated on the widespread application Discord. It is generally used as a meme to make fun of libertarians.

Wow... did that guy really just say Neuralism? He needs to read some Kant!

neural processing unit

Pronunciation: /ˈnʊrəl ˈprɑ sɛsɪŋ ˈju nɪt/ (This is a suggested phonetic pronunciation)
Definition:
1. Neural Processing Unit (phrase, noun) - A specialized computational device from which fiber-forming electrodes enter the electronic cerebra.
2. A neural cerebra that connects to a microcontroller or central processing unit (CPU) via a universal serial bus (USB) or peripheral component interconnection (PCI) interface. It is abbreviated as NPU.
Significance:
• It defines a “Neural Processing Unit” as a type of processing device.
• It specifies its connection methods (USB or PCI).
• It highlights its role within a larger computer architecture.
• It includes the abbreviation “NPU” to aid with clarity.
Phrase: neural processing unit

Examples:
• “The new computer incorporates a powerful neural processing unit.”
• “The neural processing unit enhances the velocity of machine education.”
• “The engineers tested the compatibility of the neural processing unit.”
• “A neural processing unit was inserted into the socket via the PCI bus.”
• “The microcontroller communicates to the neural processing unit.”

Neural Uploading

The hypothetical process of scanning and mapping the complete structure and state of a biological brain at a synaptic (or deeper) level and transferring that information into a computational substrate—a computer, a synthetic brain, or a network. This would create a digital consciousness, a "mindfile," that is a continuation of the original person's identity, capable of existing in virtual realities, controlling synthetic bodies, or achieving a form of immortality. It's the ultimate divorce of mind from meat, raising existential questions about the nature of self and continuity.

Neural Uploading Example: In Black Mirror's "San Junipero," the minds of the elderly are Uploaded to a perpetual virtual resort after death. The concept assumes we are nothing but patternable information, and that copying that pattern is the same as moving the soul. The "you" that wakes up in the computer is the central philosophical dilemma of the tech.

Neuroarchy

A societal system where neurotypical individuals hold dominant power and enforce neuronormativity, shaping workplaces, schools, and social expectations in ways that prioritize neurotypical ways of thinking while making life more difficult for autistic people. The neuroarchy is often maintained without conscious intent, as neurotypicals assume their way of thinking and behaving is the default. This leads to environments where autistic people are pressured to mask, suppress their natural traits, and conform to neurotypical expectations—sometimes through Neuroconversion Therapy, a practice that attempts to "train" autistic people to behave more neurotypically.

The neuroarchy makes life harder for autistic people, and those who struggle to conform are often pushed toward neuroconversion therapy.
