> not at all what humans do when they think.
Parent commentator should probably square with the fact we know little about our own cognition, and it's really an open question how is it we think.
In fact it's theorized humans think by modeling reality, with a lot of parallels to modern ML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predictive_coding
That's the issue, we don't really know enough about how LLMs work to say, and we definitely don't know enough about how humans work.
