What's so difficult to understand about LLMs? The meaning of intelligence is irrelevant. I like to call LLMs Associators. No they don't think and they don't understand. But it turns out by finding patterns and associate them on the basis of symbolic language, there comes up some useful stuff in some areas.
- JeremyNT 10mo agoI really like this framing. A lot of people mysticise them or want to quibble about intelligence, and then we end up out in the "no true Scottsman" weeds. We know what they are, how they work, what they generate. Let them be their own thing, do not anthropomorphize them. The thing we don't understand so well is humans, really.
