TL;DR: They're close enough to make people argue and publish papers about similarities to the human hippocampus I have a hunch these models are approximating an important subset of what we call reasoning. In dangerously reductive terms, it's a question of how closely and how much of a function's output we can approximate. There was at least one paper[1] showing similarities between AI models and the hippocampus. That lines up with another part of human neuroscience: at least part of human reasoning appears to take place inside the hippocampus itself [2]. From my neuroscience background, the…
