Claims that artificial and biological vision share mechanisms and failure modes: DeepDream uses gradient ascent on Inception layers to amplify mid-layer features and produce hallucinatory images, GANs train a generator and discriminator pair to produce realistic fake faces, and adversarial examples reliably fool classifiers. Neurobiology details back this: LSD binds the 5-HT2A receptor in pyramidal cells to amplify feedback in visual cortex, grid cells encode spatial vectors, and the cerebellum acts like a Smith predictor for motor prediction.
