Repeating a meme on cue sounds very LLM-like. More evidence in favour of the thesis.

- Jensson 4y agoMake the thesis "some parts of human thinking works like an LLM" and you would see way less resistance. Making extreme statements like "humans are no different from LLM" will just hurt discussion since it is very clearly not true. Humans can drive cars, balance on a tight rope etc, so it is very clear that humans have systems that an LLM lacks. The objection people would come with then is something like "but we could add those other systems to an LLM, it is no different from a human!". But then the thesis would be "humans are no different from an LLM connected to a whole bunch of other systems", which is no different from saying "some parts of human thinking works like an LLM" as I suggested above.
- FrustratedMonky 4y agoThe only reason we are talking about LLM is because it is the latest shiny thing. My overall point was that we are chipping away at what it means to be human through many advances in AI, across disciplines. NOT that LLM is the entire brain, it is just latest solving one aspect. So LLM is just latest 'check that off the list' of what a human can do but computer can't.
