how our brain works with generating picture we never see before?

531 viewsBiologyOther

If you ask me to draw anything I can’t draw anything good, I don’t know which color is best to make them look realistic, etc.

But if I think of something then the pic pop instantly with perfect colors/physic/background.

If I think about ‘Shrek having a lightsaber fight with Dart Vader’ then it just pop up instantly, and I’m sure I never see them anyway before.

Seeing AI these days able to generate these kind of things make me wonder how our brain works in this matter.

Thank you.

We don’t fully know how the brain works, but studies show that when you imagine an image the same parts of the brain light up as when you see with your eyes. The brain seems to handle objects individually as well, so it’s not just seeing a complete image it’s already splitting what you see up into the individual objects you recognize.

So it’s likely your brain is able to access individual things it’s seen before and tell itself that those things are arranged in a different scene, even if you’ve never seen that scene before.
