Add a reply to the post to explain your understanding of neural networks from the article. 

A neural network is a computer system which is based on the human brain and nervous system. It can be used to help to cut up speech into little segments while using a voice recognition system, and then it identifies vowel sounds. The speech that comes after can decipher how the vowel sounds come together to form words, which fit together to form sentences.
