This is not factual research or scientific in any way. What you are describing is 'musing'/'theorizing'. I would suggest you actually read what people who have devoted their lives to studying the things you talk about & expand your knowledge instead of making up conjecture in your head or amongst non-experts. The world would be more creative, loving and free if we all sought deeper understanding and knowledge from those that have it. And not go to action on our own internal ideas, filled with biases as the always are.
Ai is more about mathematics rather than how things are related. A large language model has basically the whole internet in its head which it can access at any time, and all it has done when you ask it a question is scan through all the words ever digitally written and regurgitates the ones most relating to what you have asked and relating to each other. (When it types "I don't like it" it's not typing the sentence as a whole, it's typing each word as a probability, based on all the sentences it has ever analysed) Don't know if that was helpful. Humans think very homogeneously and sentences are how we express one feeling in a way, whereas Ai, doesn't have feelings obviously, and it's basically making it all up word after word based on mathematical probability. I'd say that the 'essence' of linking related things together is there. Not sure if that's the best comparison?
