The article reports that large language models can predict and collaboratively modulate human memory search during a semantic fluency task. By tracking and forecasting participants’ semantic retrieval patterns, the models outperform other humans in following these mental trajectories. This suggests that AI can serve as a cognitive tool to extend human abilities in open‑ended conceptual exploration and creative ideation.

The study investigates how large language models (LLMs) can assist humans in semantic memory search tasks. By using the semantic fluency task (SFT), the researchers evaluate whether LLMs can follow and enhance human mental trajectories during generative semantic retrieval. Results show that an LLM’s ability to track and predict human memory trajectories in this task surpasses that of other humans.

While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel as static solvers, transforming them into autonomous agents remains challenging. This transition requires continuous environmental interaction, yet current agents lack the necessary persistent procedural memory.
arXiv:2608. 12377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Brains and large language models (LLMs) are fundamentally different memory systems, but they can be compared through shared functional questions: where memory-related information is represented, how partial cues recover broader associations, how new information is written or updated, and how memory-related states can be perturbed.
