You're worrying about levels of sophistication and architecture. My point is that we do operate on a pretty binary level. You even expect it from other people in your interactions in being able to predict reactions. If you get a different response you chalk that up to the environmental circumstances or differing past experience. The underlying point is the same: it's a series of chemical and electrical interactions. We can expect that with a given set of inputs, we'll get a given set of outputs every time. The fact we can't predict exactly which inputs map to which outputs is just a matter of complexity. That's why there's thought even as far as that the experience consciousness may be more of an emergent phenomenom.
