The human brain contains about 50 billion to 200 billion neurons(nobody knows how many for sure), each of which interfaces with 1,000 to 100,000 other neurons through 100 trillion (10 and 14 zeroes) to 10 quadrillion (10 and 16 zeroes) synaptic junctions. Each synapse possesses a variable firing threshold which is reduced as the neuron is repeatedly activated. If we assume that the firing threshold at each synapse can guess 256 distinguishable levels, and if we suppose that there are
20,000 shared synapses per neuron (10,000 per neuron), then the total information storage capacity of the synapses in the cortex would be of the order of 500 to 1,000 terabytes. (Of course, if the brain's storage of information takes place at a molecular level, then I would be afraid to hazard a guess regarding how many bytes can be stored in the brain. One estimate has placed it at about 3.6 X 10 and 19 zeroes bytes.)
And capacity is not all. It's the way the communication works, through guesses, associations, and other sensual influences.
