A "lightly" negative consequence of this deficiency is the fact that, faced
with a given external reality, almost any person makes a personal image-model
associated with that external reality. We will see later that, for extreme
situations, such deficiency is associated with the psychiatric disorder called
"paranoia".
The symbolic models do not have such problems. Once a symbolic model is made
in a mathematical environment, the "law of the propagation of the errors" is
able to predict the importance of any element or relation.
For instance, if we have a complex mathematical formula, the law of the
propagation of the errors will tell us how much the result is changed if an
element is changed with, let's say, 1%.
We already used the term "correct" associated with the importance of an
element or relation in an image model. If there is an external reality and two
associated models, one image-model and one symbolic-model, and if the two
models have the same predictions, then the importance associated with the
elements and relations of the image model is correct. If not, the right
importance is that of the symbolic model.
The above method is not good in any practical situation. In fact, there is no
method to know if we associated the right importance to any element or
relation of an image-model. This is XD4.
XD5: this deficiency is a technological one. It means that there is no
hardware or software method to erase a model of the brain. A model is made
forever. It can be destroyed only in an uncontrolled way due to the
biological deficiencies or the brain.
The consequence of this deficiency is huge in many practical situations. The
problem is developed more in another section of this book.
THE STRUCTURE OF THE BRAIN, THE PSM MODEL
The Protection and Surviving Model (PSM) is the basic image-model of any
brain. When a new being is born, it has only this model in its brain. This
model is very complex and it will be described in this chapter.
There is a section of the PSM, which contains a collection of short-range
models. They have to act very fast to provide minimal protection for that
being (including newborn beings) in some specific dangerous situation. These
activities are called "reflex actions".
The PSM contains also some basic models, like the model to keep in the
eyesight a moving entity from external reality, or the model to touch by hand
an entity in the range of the hand. There is also a collection of models
associated with equilibrium and the general stability of the external body,
together with a model of it, of course.
There are also a number of long range models which contain the instincts to
survive unconditionally, forever (basic design requirement).
During the period of growing, others models can be included in the PSM, models
which are associated with the educational process. Such models have to prepare
the being to live in a specific external reality.
