What is "outputs"

Usage examples of "outputs".

By the mid-1970s, it was clear that neither sensory inputs nor motor outputs had properties which corresponded to the behavioural habituation, as neither showed such decrements in electrical response.

All that is needed is machinery, or mathematical models of such machinery, which will respond to particular inputs with outputs which resemble those that brains might have.

The units of which the computer is composed are determinate, with a small number of inputs and outputs, and the processes that they carry out with such impressive regularity are linear and error-free.

But, equally, the insistence on treating the brain as a sort of black box whose internal biological mechanisms and processes are irrelevant, and all that matters is to match inputs to outputs, is reminiscent of the behaviourist programme in psychology, about which there will be much more to say in Chapter 6.

Do the outputs of this mechanism resemble those in a real human carrying out the same task?
