I think a lot of people here who are freaked out about LLMs would have a lot of their anxieties assuaged if they read a little bit about neuroscience and just trusted their vibe of the LLMs they talked to. To me it seems like the brain is doing something a lot more complicated than deep learning. If you read about CNET it looks like the human brain actually involves quantum effects (which opens up the exciting possibility of a causal mechanism for free will to exist).
This is related because if you just enter a conversation with Claude or ChatGPT and get to stuff like this, if you just imagined it was a person saying what the LLM was saying you would think they were a fucking moron.
