To say they LLMs are 'predictive text models trained to match patterns in their data, statistical algorithms, not brains, not systems with “psychology” in any human sense.' is not entirely accurate. Classic LLMs like GPT 3 , sure. But LLM-powered chatbots (ChatGPT, Claude - which is what this article is really about) go through much more than just predict-next-token training (RLHF, presumably now reasoning training, who knows what else).

Yep, but...

That's a logical leap, and you'd need to bridge the gap between "more than next-token prediction" to similarity to wetware brains and "systems with psychology".
