    The issue with your assertion is that people don’t actually work a similar way.

    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.
