The visuals generated by the neural network remind me of visuals experienced under the influence of psilocybin or LSD. I wonder if I am making an unjust leap or if there is a similar organic process (searching for familiar patterns) taking place in the mind? Fascinating, thanks for sharing.

- sabalaba 11y agoNo hypothesis is unjust! It could also be related some of the experiences people have in sensory deprivation tanks. Your brain attempting to see structure in noise and hallucinates. One hypothesis would be that on LSD, and other psychoactive substances, this feedback loop is somehow enhanced. There might be a few doctorates to be earned in testing these hypotheses.
