The question, as always, is: can we get any useful insights from all of that?

Trying to copy biological systems 1:1 rarely works, and copying biological systems doesn't seem to be required either. CNNs are somewhat brain-inspired, but only somewhat, and LLMs have very little architectural similarity to human brain - other than being an artificial neural network.

This functional similarity of LLMs to the human brain doesn't come from reverse engineered details of how the human brain works - it comes from the training process.
