And how do you think it predicts that? All that complex math can be clustered into higher level structures. One could almost call it.. thinking.
Besides we have reasoning models now, so they can emulate thinking if nothing else
No, one couldn't, unless one was trying to sell snake oil.
No, they can emulate generating text that looks like text typed up by someone who was thinking.
What do you define as thinking if not a bunch of signals firing in your brain?
Yes, thinking involves signals firing in your brain. But, not just any signals. Fire the wrong signals and someone's having a seizure not thinking.
Just because LLMs generate words doesn't mean they're thinking. Thinking involves reasoning and considering something. It involves processing information, storing memories, then bringing them up later as appropriate. We know LLMs aren't doing that because we know what they are doing, and what they're doing is simply generating the next word based on previous words.
