Is the human mind itself not a self-organizing machine that stores/retrieves recorded data through the stimulation of our senses?

After a little research on how brains work the line that people think separates us from "machines" seems to blur.

It's truly remarkable how much science will tell us about ourselves, how much we praise our biological existence.
