The Infinite Brain was a 1930 story by John C. Campbell that
related the attempts by inventor Anton Des Roubles to create "a
mechanism exactly duplicating the mechanical and electrical processes
occurring in the human brain and constituting the phenomena known as
thought."
Given
that his efforts invariably resulted in giant, betentacled,
multi-legged robots that lay waste to the countryside, one is led to
suspect that Mr. Des Roubles was a bit distracted somewhere
early in the design phase. |
