- stevenhuang 3y agoThe ability to recursively identify structural patterns is intelligent behavior and theorized to play a crucial component in consciousness known as predictive coding https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictive_coding https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictive_coding https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_energy_principle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_energy_principle Our brains are theorized to work like this using some form of hierarchical latent structure, and learning via prediction errors. Sounds a lot like model building and LLMs, yes? It's some true tragic comedy that you think this is religious mysticism instead of stopping and wondering if you might not be lacking some knowledge foundation. You really couldn't have proven my point better. Please consider reflecting on your ability to assess material outside your expertise.
