They don't think or speak anything at all. They use a statistical model to predict the next most likely token to display in response to a prompt.
- strbean 1y agoDistinction without a difference. s/speak \/ think/operate/ If that makes you happy.
- dgfitz 1y agoThere is an enormous difference between claiming an LLM can think or use statistics to generate a token. All of the difference.
