Have there been attempts to replicate the human brain's amazing processing power and speed by fabricating computer circuits which have hundreds of connections like a neuron's hundreds of dendritic connections? (see description)

This massively parallel strategy is possible because each neuron collects inputs from and sends output to many other neurons—on the order of 1,000 on average for both input and output for a mammalian neuron. (By contrast, each transistor has only three nodes for input and output all together.) Information from a single neuron can be delivered to many parallel downstream pathways.
