The trouble is that no one knows enough about how the brain works to refute that claim.

There's no serious claim that needs refuting.

I don't think any serious person thinks LLMs work like the human brain.

People claiming this online aren't going around murdering their spouses like you'd delete an old LLama model from your hard drive.

I'm not sure why people keep posting these sorts of claims they can't possibly actually believe if we look at their demonstrable real life behavior.

  • We’re obviously more advanced than an LLM, but to claim that human beings simply generate output based on inputs and context (environment, life experience) is not silly.

    > People claiming this online aren't going around murdering their spouses like you'd delete an old LLama model from your hard drive.

    Not sure what you’re trying to say here.

    • I'm saying you'd object to being treated like an LLM and don't really have conviction when you make these claims.

      I'd also say stringing together A.I. buzzwords (input output) to describe humans isn't really an argument so much as what philosophers call a category error.
