SENTIENCE

Mmkay, is sentience/consiousness/ect quantum, chemical/electrical, or SPIRITUALLL?

neurons is that they ARE binary

Not really. They only exhibit some binary behaviour once they pass the firing threshold. Even when they do, there is a complex interaction across the synaptic gap. Then there are the myriad axons attached to dendrites, each with different influence strengths.

And don't forget that neurons can also fire at different rates. They usually don't fire at the fastest rate they're capable of, and this too also has an effect of recovery periods of the receiving neuron.

The brain isn't binary. Simulating it on a digital machine would be bloody hard. I suspect (but cannot be certain) that a digital representation of a human brain would have exponential or combinatorial time complexity.
