LLMs don't produce text at all, they produce probabilities of tokens. Tokens aren't text, they're high dimenensional coordinates in a latent "concept space". These are displayed to us as text, but this distinction is important when you think about what they're actually doing, which is closer to building and transforming concept geometries.
