🧠🤖 When AI Thinks Like Us
What if AI doesn’t just mimic us—but actually learns like we do?
Researchers at DTU found striking similarities between human cognition and AI models. Both abstract the world into concept clusters—like grouping every kind of cat into “catness”—a property called convexity. They also generalize from small data, process information in layered hierarchies, and form structured latent spaces where related ideas naturally cluster.
Interestingly, how convex a model’s latent space is can predict how well it will specialize in new tasks—just like how humans adapt knowledge across domains.
