And a nice summary by Richard Antonello can be found here: elifesciences.org/articles/111...
Apparent neural encoding of future words may arise from the statistical structure of language itself, rather than from predictive computations in the brain.
New peer-reviewed paper w/ @mheilbron.bsky.social, @predictivebrain.bsky.social & Jakub Szewczyk!
Pre-onset brain encoding has been taken as evidence that brains–like LLMs–predict upcoming words. We show that the same signatures arise in systems that cannot predict. (elifesciences.org) (1/8)
