Birds and planes are very similar other than the propulsion and landing gear, and construction materials. Maybe bird vs helicopter, or bird vs rocket.

"Apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?" Monty Python's Life of Brian.

P.S. It is relative, but quite a lot of differences IMHO.


Yes indeed, but they still use wings, fly in the air and so on.

Artificial neural networks have very little in common with real brains and have no structural or functional similarities besides "they process information, and they have things called neurons". They can perform some of the same tasks though, like how a quadcopter can perform some of the duties as a homing pigeon.
