Researchers have found that some AI vision systems can be fooled by optical illusions in ways similar to humans. By studying how deep neural networks misinterpret illusions, scientists gain insights into how our brains use shortcuts like prediction and context to process vision. While AI doesn’t see exactly like humans, comparing its errors with ours is helping researchers better understand perception, attention, and how the brain constructs reality.
