It's the same bitching every time an LLM post can be responded to. ITS NOT THINKING!!! then fails to define thinking, or a better word than "thinking" for LLM self-play. I consider these posts to be on par for quality with "FRIST!!!!!!" posts.

Idk I think saying it’s “computing” is more precise because “thinking” applies to meatbags. It’s emulating thinking.

Really I just think that anthropomorphizing LLMs is a dangerous road in many ways and really it’s mostly marketing BS anyway.

I haven’t seen anything that shows evidence of LLMs being anything beyond a very sophisticated computer system.

Do submarines swim? Thinking is something that doesn’t happen inside a machine. Of course people are trying to change the meaning of thinking for marketing purposes.
