Yep. It's nearly identical to the neural nets we were using in the 90s. Back then even a supercomputer wasn't big enough or fast enough to do what we do today.
I have to wonder though. Is this all a human brain is? A similar thing to an LLM just scaled exponentially larger. I mean a brain is not just neurons with simple connections to each other. The neurons, axons, dendrites, <insert_unexplained_thing>, etc in a brain are all holding and processing information in different ways and doing it nearly 100% in parallel. That's a really big model.
The biological discoveries show how complex a biological brain actually is. Even the tiny brains in a bee or spider are able to solve puzzles and use tools. That's crazy.
