In this paper we unveil the existence of hidden chaotic sets in a simplified Hopfield neural network with three neurons. It is shown that beside two stable cycles, the system presents hidden chaotic attractors and also hidden chaotic transients which, after a relatively long life-time, fall into regular motions along the stable cycles.
