Part 4/9:

The function of AI neurons is a mathematical construct. Nunes emphasizes that the essential idea behind AI is the modeling of these neurons into what is known as a neural network. In this context, information travels as numbers through the network. Each neuron stores a value determined by input it receives, akin to how biological neurons connect and process information.

The operation of a neuron encapsulates mathematical functions, with its output being dependent on the values of connected neurons. When these neurons work in concert—forming a neural network—their collective operation accomplishes the tasks associated with AI, such as image recognition.
