Things that are pretty similar to digital computers, but maybe there are more cores and the way they send messages is a little bit more like the way brain neurons send spikes.

与计算机非常相似的东西，但可能拥有更多的核心， 且它们发送消息的方式更接近大脑神经元发送脉冲的方式。

Also, in conventional digital computers or digital computers in general, you have a concept of what's called arithmetic depth, which is jargon that basically means how many sequential operations are performed to turn an input into an output.

在传统的计算机或一般意义上的计算机中，有一个被称为算术深的概念，这基本上是指将输入转换为输出时执行的连续操作的量。

Right, so I would say to think of a transistor as the building block of a digital computer is accurate.

确实，将晶体管视为计算机的基本构建单元是准确的。
