The native, internal language that an
AI or large language model uses to think. It's the inscrutable "machine code" of a neural network, consisting of complex vectors, weights, and data relationships that are completely alien to
humans.
When an
AI's output is weird, nonsensical, or a "hallucination," it's often because a bit of its raw Neurolese leaked out instead of being properly translated into human language. The term was notably used by podcaster Dwarkesh
Patel and Sholto Douglas & Trenton Bricken when discussing future
AI scenarios.
My custom chatbot was supposed to write a recipe for
lasagna, but instead it just gave me a wall of
random symbols and half-finished
words. It must have gotten stuck thinking in Neurolese again.
