>You put a cat's brain into a dog's head and its still breathing! It didn't flatline immediately! Is yesterday's news?

i think it isn't surprising giving how for example kernels in the first layers in visual CNNs converge to Gabors which are also the neuron transfer functions in the first layers of cat, human, etc. visual cortexes, and that there is math proving that such kernels are optimal (at some reasonable conditions).

And so i'd expect that the layers inside LLM reach or come close to some optimality which is universal across brains and LLMs (main reasons for such optimality is energy (various L2 like metrics), information compression and entropy)
