Except that something like half of people don't have any internal monologue. It's tempting to pretend that LLM are doing similar things to our brains, but the reality is that they are extremely different and only very very superficially appear to be doing similar things.
- tdeck 9mo agoEven those of us with an internal monologue aren't using it most of the time. I doubt I've ever though "now let me scroll down to the next comment", for example.
- Ancapistani 9mo ago... is this true? I'm literally always thinking in that way. If I focus a bit harder on it, it's apparent that there's another, faster cognitive layer beyond my background monologue as well.
- tdeck 9mo agoYes for me it's true. Most of my actions are not part of a monologue. However I use it to think through possible conversations or to carry myself through tough problem solving problems or complex processes.
