      Funny how triggering it is for some people when anyone acknowledges humans are just evolved primates doing the same pattern matching.

        We actually have sentience, though, and are capable of creating new things and having realizations. AI isn’t real and LLMs and dispersion models are simply reiterating algorithmic patterns, no LLM or dispersion model can create anything original or expressive.

        Also, we aren’t “evolved primates.” We are just primates, the thing is, primates are the most socially and cognitively evolved species on the planet, so that’s not a denigrating sentiment unless your a pompous condescending little shit.

        It’s not that institutionalized people don’t follow “set” pattern matches. That’s why you’re getting downvotes.

        Some of those humans can operate with the same brain rules alright. They may even be more efficient at it than you and I may. The higher level functions is a different thing.

          That’s absolutely what it is. It’s a pattern on here. Any acknowledgment of humans being animals or less than superior gets hit with pushback.

            I didn’t say we aren’t animals or that we don’t follow physics rules.

            But what you’re saying is the equivalent of “everything that goes up will eventually go down - that’s how physics works and you don’t see that, you’re in denial!!!11!!!1”

            Humans are animals. But an LLM is not an animal and has no reasoning abilities.

              It’s built by animals, and it reflects them. That’s impressive on its own. Doesn’t need to be exaggerated.

                  These are almost the exact same talking points we used to hear about ‘why would anyone need a home computer?’ Wild how some people can be so consistently short-sighted again and again and again.
