I was just wondering a couple days ago why the image from my phone is so grainy, while my eyes+brain can see everything clear in the dark (it wasn't completely dark, of course).

This seems to replicate the post-processing we do in our brain (which is also a giant neural network). I wonder if the process is similar?

Also, our eyes are better. So far.

That's not really a good analogy. You have a totally different sensor chemistry in your eyes, as well as different processing.
