I’m not sure how to even engage with this category of claims because they totally ignore the obvious question that’s automatically implied when you assert them, that being how exactly human intelligence differs from whatever term you use to say that LLMs don’t have real intelligence.
Maybe belief in some of these terms is another good poll question. I suspect all of them are only going to get more common and dogmatic.
Pretty much anything you point out to these will be met with derision unfortunately. From the same thread (on /r/technology) as the above samples, and in response to reasonable comments:
> Jesus, you are not the brightest bulb are you?
> There’s always someone who wants to argue that LLMs have intelligence and aren’t simply designed to respond in specific ways.
> Truly a braindead take. Congrats
> All those words to, once again, reiterate that these things are incredible machines for making correlations, but not for establishing causations 🙄
