LLMs emulate language by following intricate links between tokens. This is not meant to emulate memory or imagination, just transforming a list of tokens into another list of tokens, generating language. And language is a huge part of the intelligence puzzle so it looks smart to people despite being quite mechanical.
A next step could be to create a mind, with a piece that works similar to the paretial lobe to give it a sense of self or temporal existence.

- nurettin 1y agoBrains themselves have a lot more mechanisms to cause emergent behavior what with all the adaptive organic layers so I can't really compare the two 1-1.
