ANN (artificial neural networks) is the more accepted terminology

    Maybe accepted but still inaccurate, it's a simulation, not a proper artificial network, which, by definition, would be a proper "hardware".
    And for the "artificial" term, I don't know, everything humanity does is artificial, so it's a bit superfluous.

    Not sure these definitions are any better. Why is hardware proper by definition? And where is the software delineation? Would an fpga be hardware or software? How would this differ from our own neurons in that how they fire versus what they do is ill defined? I think trying to pin down where computational work is done biologically is a bit of a pointless exercise right now. Similarly trying to pin out definitions we use in computer science to match those ill understood biological constraints is also premature general ai using non biological computation may end up being vastly different from biology.

    And traditionally we just call things a neural network artificial is implied give we are running on a digital computer.

    Also the statement everything humanity does being artificial is needlessly broad. I don’t think you could argue reproduction of humans is artificial.
