Hmm, still a boson particle, the same as electrons. Organic neurons don't transmit boson particles, they create a fake electromagnetic field by equalising ions in solution. It's lame and not real intelligence.

Electrons aren't bosons, they're fermions. And ions generally do contain electrons unless we're talking positive hydrogen or negative anti-hydrogen ions. And the EM field isn't fake (was that part of the joke?).

Also I was attempting to reference optical quantum computing but light also seems to be useful for classical computing. Thereby adding to your joke not contradicting it.
