    Dont anthropomorphise. There is quite the difference between a human and an advanced lookuptable.

      Well… I do agree with you but human brains are basically big prediction engines that use lookup tables, experience, to navigate around life. Obviously a super simplification, and LLMs are nowhere near humans, but it is quite a step in the direction.

        Well, I don’t think humans are turing computable, so I disagree with you there. Which should have been clear from my initial post.

        Fun fact, what you just said about how humans are just computers is also part of dianetics. Amazing how it happened in 2 different cults.

        oh my, you’re such a confluence of bad takes (racist, transphobic, creepy and ignorant of the technical and biological topics you’re pontificating about.)

      I absolutely agree. However, if you think the LLMs are just fancy LUTs, then I strongly disagree. Unless, of course, we are also just fancy LUTs.

        You ever meet an ai researcher with a background in biology? I’ve discussed this stuff with one. She disagrees with Turing about machines thinking including when ai is in the picture. They process information very differently from how biology does

          This is a vague non answer, although I agree it’s done very differently because our process is biological and ai is not.

          But as I asked elsewhere, what’s the effective difference?
