Very interesting! I don’t know much about the brain but I think this post did a good job of explaining the concept and showing it’s importance. I wonder how the brain does this with neuroplasticity. I’ve read this article from MIT about researchers rewiring eye inputs to the audio processing parts of the brain. Would the hypothalamus have that hyper-prior on what eye data “looks like” and create loops and systems that could de-code that data and reintegrate it with the undamaged processing systems? Could an AI system just as easily create or re-use existing substructures within it’s code? I’m too new to ML learning to know if models can add layers during deployment, or how generalizability could be made within neuro networks past training.
