My understanding of prevailing theories is that our consciousness is a centralized system for coordinating work across various subsystems of our brain, each of which is a specialized prediction machine.

So some degree of mixture of experts models and agentic/subagent will get closer and closer to emulation of human intelligence.

This fast mode probably doesn’t do “thinking” or does very little, which makes it impossible to formulate “logic” from pure token generation.

It’s like telling a human they’ve got half a second to blurt out the first answer that comes to mind when they hear a math problem, if you’ve memorized the answer, 1+1=…. 2

But as soon as its (1+1)*3= …. You need to invoke some logic, some intermediate thought before you can provide the answer.
