>They do not reason, learn, conceptualize, think creatively or abstractly Since we lack a definition of all these things or a clear understanding of how they are realized in humans or LLMs, the only thing you can really claim is that LLMs do not look like biological neural networks when it comes to processing information at the fundamental level. Everything else is dogma. But since all this stuff clearly emerges as size of the network grows, we can not ignore the possibility that complexity itself is the only requirement, not architecture (hardware or software). At the most basic levels, we are also just machines that evolved to make more of themselves and learned to interact with the environment to achieve that goal more efficiently. Humans will certainly have to come to terms with the fact that we are not the pinnacle of intelligence in the universe, but that won't stop them from denying it.
