Also, a "neural network" is a network of nodes that adapt to the amount of "correct" descisions that result from a use of those nodes. Used to be a domain of informatics that was featured a lot in popular science for a while, but it didnt produce many useful results really. At least not more than something like linear regression or eigenvector analysis.
I think in discovery its jsut a substitute for the word internet, without much relation to the true meaning of the word.
