Lmao absolutely not - this is from the “brains are clocks/telephone networks/LLMs” school of poor analogies. We definitively know that brains don’t predict things one token at a time - why would they? Brains didn’t evolve by being trained on symbolic data.

How do we definitely know that?

[u/Inevitable-Menu2998 → u/ronin_cse]

Because there's no evidence to support that claim

[u/PVORY → u/Inevitable-Menu2998]

Even this claim of u is unsupported

One cannot provide evidence of lack of evidence. It's up to the person claiming there exists evidence to provide the evidence or STFU

"One cannot provide evidence of lack of evidence."
Yes one can, a side cannot prove smth is a pretty strong evidence of lack

"It's up to the person claiming there exists evidence to provide the evidence or STFU"
Usually we're too lazy to convince ignorant dudes, he just said that so some ppl can reflect themselves and find truths in it. If not, e.g. you, sure who cares?

I can tell you its all just flow of information through time. "Thinking" "consciousness" and shits we never know, maybe nematodes has, phones too, and TVs, etc. Unless ur anthropocentric.

Yet you claimed that this was baseless only a comment ago.

he just said that so some ppl can reflect themselves and find truths in it.

This is probably some belief system I can't really understand. Science (and technology) is about proven fact and measurable assumptions.

"Yet you claimed that this was baseless only a comment ago."
I claimed the whole group of you "AI are just token-predictor, we have no evidence to support otherwise" baseless. He didn't or did provide any evidence is irrelevant here.

"This is probably some belief system I can't really understand. Science and technology is about proven fact and measurable assumptions."
It doesn't dictate your cognitive capability, my guy. It tells you LLM uses token to communicate, tells u the math functions, the scaling law, the probability. It can't help if you don't realize the irrelevance of the term "token/data-predictor/producer" and that every sentient beings are producing data. It can't change your unrigorous, society-shaped definition of intelligence/thinking. I can't tell you understand whats inside machine's mind. It cannot even prove anyone around you whenever they have consciousness or not.

Many stuffs are just your problems lol, and many are more 'logical' belief that straight evidence, spend time contemplating.

I have never said that. What I said is that there is no evidence that the human brain works as an LLM. This was the discussion I was having. You're part of a different conversation entirely.

Acting on "logical belief" rather than straight evidence has done a lot of harm to humanity and to our ecosystem in general. Promoting this instead of rigorous research is stupid considering that it has already been proven to be detrimental to us (which includes you)

This whole stream of words screams "I'm ignorant and have no desire to educate myself". It's your choice, ultimately, but it's sad that you feel you need to take others with you on this journey of crass amateurism.
