I couldn't agree more. On a random night a few months ago I found myself in that curious half-asleep-half-awake state and this time I had became aware of my brain's constant jibbering phrases. It was as if I could hear my thoughts before the filter pass through which they become actual cohesive sentences.

I could "see" hundreds of words/thoughts/meanings being generated in a diffuse way, all at the same time but also slowly evolving over time and then see my brain distill them into a sentence. It would happen repeatedly every second ridiculously fast yet also "slow enough" that I could see it happen.

It's just my personal half-asleep hallucination, so obviously take from it what you will (~nothing) but I can't shake the feeling we need a similar algorithm. If I ever pursue a doctorate degree, this is what I'll be trying.

Human "reality checker" systems are analogous to a discriminator in a generative adversarial network, but strongly informed by emotion.

Psychology tells us that regardless of how "emotional" we are, our sense of truth/falsehood goes first through an emotional circuit, which is informed by underlying beliefs.

If someone states something you strongly disagree with, your first internal response will be emotional; then your thoughts will pick it up from there.
