I’m autistic and my mental processing is visual. It’s a lot like that actually.
Ye old "Mind's Eye" seems to vary person to person rather than correlating with level of neurotypicality. IDK tho, maybe some studies could show the truth.
It’s actually not like this very much, because these things always just show images floating around.
In reality the images are changing constantl, and it’s not images you could capture with a camera. It’s abstract shapes that constantly shift according to rules I’ve programmed in for how they’re allowed to change. As they go through changes they implicitly calculate logic and other mental computations. At the very end if I want to tell someone what I’m thinking, I translate it into words so I can say it.
It’s more like a circuit diagram mixed with a fractal mixed with MC Escher drawings, than others is like images of documents and photos floating around in a screen saver pattern. Like a physical computing machine being simulated in my head.
