arXiv:2608. 13567v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The human brain exhibits a striking degree of functional specialization, with distinct networks supporting language, formal reasoning, reasoning about other minds, and reasoning about the physical world.
arXiv:2607. 26179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs are widely regarded as alien intelligences, systems whose cognitive operations are fundamentally unlike our own.
arXiv:2607. 19973v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI researchers describe state-of-the-art models as one thing repeated at scale: the Transformer, wired identically for text, pixels, or speech.
arXiv:2607. 00397v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding how complex cognitive functions are organized within artificial systems is central to interpreting large language models (LLMs) and relating them to biological cognition.
arXiv:2606. 04025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dominant programming paradigms inherit an execution model optimised for a bygone era of a single human mind instructing a local machine, leaving contemporary systems burdened with historical path dependencies.
arXiv:2607. 07984v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural architecture search (NAS) methods have grown increasingly efficient, yet they remain bounded by manually engineered search spaces that require substantial domain expertise and must be rebuilt for every new task.
arXiv:2509. 14474v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The debate around Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) remains open due to two fundamentally different goals: replicating human-level performance versus replicating human-like cognitive processes.
arXiv:2606. 07722v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This article offers a perspective on the nature of chatbots as genuine conversation partners when discussing problems in relation to their solutions.
arXiv:2606. 06380v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The question of whether artificial systems can be conscious remains open, in part because existing approaches either evaluate systems against theory-derived checklists (discriminative) or engineer consciousness-inspired modules directly (architectural); both leave open whether observed structures are artifacts of human language priors.
arXiv:2607. 06269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current large language models (LLMs) are fundamentally stateless: their behavior is fully determined by input at inference time, and any higher-order cognitive architecture must be simulated at the application layer through prompt engineering and context management.
arXiv:2511. 21731v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present the results of cognitive tests on conceptual combinations, performed using specific Large Language Models (LLMs) as test subjects.
arXiv:2608. 01548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language can be viewed as a formalized subset of thought: a consequence-governed symbolic structure projected from wider situated cognition.
arXiv:2606. 14512v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The recent successes of neural networks producing human-like language have caused significant stir in cognitive science, with many researchers arguing that classical puzzles about human cognition and challenges to artificial intelligence are being solved by neural networks.
