   That’s a fair challenge. My intuition is that the interesting similarity isn’t “parameters plus an algorithm,” but the fact that in both cases a large body of observations is replaced by a smaller generative structure capable of making pred

   That would be a fascinating experiment. If an LLM trained only on pre-Newton or pre-Einstein material independently arrived at something resembling those theories, it would be strong evidence that powerful new representations can emerge fro

   That’s an interesting point. Brains and LLMs are certainly very different in their implementation. My argument, though, is less about the implementation itself and more about the fact that both systems are capable of generating and manipula
