Hmm, yeah looks like I got PP attention backwards.
There’s two layers! Predictive circuits are sorta “autonomously” creating a focus within the domain of what they predict, and then the “global” or top-down attention can either be an attentional subsystem watching the GNW, or the distributed attentional-relevancy gate around the GNW.
The pandemonium stuff is also a great model. In another comment I mentioned that I’m fuzzy on how tightly or loosely coupled different subsytems can be, and how they are organized, and I was unintentionally imagining them as quite monolithic entities.
