About this listen

How much do artificial intelligence systems really resemble the human mind? In this episode of Rooting, The Podcast, host Root takes you on a deep dive into the emerging metaphor that’s reshaping our understanding of AI: the idea that modern large language models and multi-agent systems are designed with architectures that parallel human cognition.

Explore how features like chat interfaces act as digital sensory systems, context windows mimic our short-term memory, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) gives AI its own form of long-term recall.

We’ll examine the practical implications of these analogies for architects, developers, and data scientists, and discuss how understanding these human-AI parallels can drive better system design, interface engineering, and collaboration between people and intelligent machines.
