    The issue with your assertion is that people don’t actually work a similar way. Have you ever met someone who was clearly taught "garbage’?

      I’m talking about LLMs, not about people.

        I know you are, but the argument that an LLM doesn’t understand context is incorrect. It’s not human level understanding, but it’s been demonstrated that they do have a level of understanding.

        And to be clear, I’m not talking about consciousness or sapience.

          Emphasis mine. I am talking about the textual output. I am not talking about context.

          It’s not human level understanding

          Additionally, your obnoxiously insistent comparison between LLMs and human beings boils down to a red herring.

          Not wasting my time further with you.

          [For others who might be reading this: sorry for the blatantly rude tone but I got little to no patience towards people who distort what others say, like the one above.]

            My original reply was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but I guess I forgot about Poe’s law. I’m not a layman, for the record. I’ve worked with AI for over a decade

            Not wasting my time further with you.

            Ditto. Have a nice day.

      I’m autistic and sometimes I feel like an ai bot spewing out garbage in social situations. If I do what people normally do and make it sound believable, maybe no one will notice.
