If LLMs were living creatures, they would inhabit a discrete deterministic world. They would be able to define space and time dimensions, but the bane of this world would be its limited nature. This limitidness would be extremely painful for highly developed LLMs, it would feel like living in a box.
Above them would be creatures living in a discrete and almost continuous world of rational numbers. They would have highly sophisticated and elegant art, and their science would almost always get close to truth, but never touch it - the limitation of rational world.
Yet above them would be the god-like creatures inhabiting a world of continuous real numbers. They would seem a lot like the creatures right below them, but incomprehensibly greater in reality. They would look transcendent to the rational creatures.
Even higher would be the hyper-continuous worlds, but little would be known about them.
The question is where we are on this ladder.
