That is actually a natural metric for the brain and close to what the linguistic cortex does internally. The comparison of having a human play a word prediction game and comparing logit scores of that to the native internal logit predictions of an LLM is kinda silly. The real comparison should be between a human playing that game and LLM playing the exact same game in the exact same way (ie asking GPT verbally to predict the logit score of the next word/token), or you should comapre internal low level transformer logit scores to linear readout models from brain neural probes/scans.

oh interesting point, yeah.
