While a single perceptron is limited in its capacity to model complex patterns, the real strength of neural networks emerges from the assembly of multiple layers. Each layer consists of numerous perceptrons working together, allowing the network to capture intricate and non-linear relationships within the data. With sufficient depth and breadth, these networks can approximate virtually any function, no matter how complex.
