Why do you believe that this is a "very non-human-brain-like
approach"? Mirror neurons and many other recent discoveries tend to
make me believe that the human brain does itself have (or indeed, is)
an internal simulation world.
In a sense we do, but it's not implemented in the brain as an actual sim
world with a physics engine and so forth ... our internal sim world is a
lot less physically accurate (more "naive physics" than correct
equational physics), and probably gains some kinds of creativity from
this as well as losing a lot of potential for other kinds of creativity...
