Some evidence is emerging which indicates that the activations of a predictive system like GPT-2 can be mapped to human brain states (from fMRI) during language processing[1]. We seem to have at least _something_ in common with LLMs.
The same seems to be true for visual processing. Human brain states from fMRI can be mapped to latent space of systems like Stable Diffusion, effectively reading images from minds.[2]
