I wonder if the fact that the’ perturbations’ from GPT-3 are born out of a neural network makes then click a bit more in the brain.

I don't know from a scientific perspective but it certainly feels that way.

I'd liken it to the results from Deep Dream style image generation. Each small part of the image makes sense but taken together it's a Lovecraftian nightmare that your brain can't quite process all at once.

Whoa never thought of that but you’re right.

I've never heard of this before - care to elaborate?
