I always find it interesting how a hero dose of LSD gives similar visuals to what these image AI's do to achieve a coherent image.

on top of that the associated Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder (HPPD) clinical condition seems to be more like an image processing issue, somewhere between the rods and cones (sensor) and memory (persistent storage). like an unwanted configuration change in a program or development environment.

I feel like the more we get AI to act like humans, and the more those engineers and others use LSD, the more convergence we are going to have with curiosity and breakthroughs about how we function. More akin to biological machines without such unique mental faculties, just the illusion or hallucination of such.
