If you want examples of this, see the recent book "The AI Con" https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/217432753-the-ai-con https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/217432753-the-ai-con which describes LLMs as "souped-up autocomplete", complex statistics that cannot truly understand anything. A more recent example is this paper: https://zenodo.org/records/20071869 https://zenodo.org/records/20071869 which says, > [LLMs], as turbo-charged statistical models (recall their formal relation to logistic regression) can only but provide correlations. And, of course, the Stochastic Parrot paper is the classic example in this area. It is from 5 years ago, but "LLMs only do statistics / can't understand" is very much alive and active among academics, even if it is a minority position.
