Just curious. And how far/detailed is modern scientific understanding of human cognition?
I have an impression that, generally speaking, unlike how we know how an LLM operates, we barely have any clues on how humans form thoughts - or am I wrong here? Just some overall ideas that it's "probably somewhere out there, where fMRI shows the activity" but nothing concrete?
