Generative AI helps to explain human memory and imagination

A new study by UCL researchers explores how memories enable learning, imagination, and planning. Using a generative neural network, researchers simulated neural networks in the brain to understand how they learn and remember a series of events. The study suggests that when we replay memories during rest, our brains pick up patterns from past experiences, aiding in making predictions necessary for survival. The model explains how the neocortex acquires conceptual knowledge and together with the hippocampus, allows for the reconstruction of memories and the generation of new events during imagination and planning.
