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.
That I wouldn’t treat a human like an LLM is completely irrelevant to the topic.
Input and output are not AI buzzwords, they’re fundamental terms in computation. The argument that human beings are computational has been alive in philosophy since the 1940’s brother…
"the argument that human beings are computational has been alive in philosophy since the 1940’s brother"
I recently read a little philosophy on this, to say humans are "computational" you first have to define what you mean by "computational". Depending on the definition you employ, you are either making a wacky claim, a controversial claim, or a noncontroversial claim.
Since you provide no definition, you are saying nothing at all.
The discourse that comes up in AI topics seems more glib language games than actual concern over human nature, computational or otherwise.

The fact you wouldn't treat a human like an LLM suggests your constant claim of similarity is not something you actually believe.
