Yes, my keyboard autofill is just like your brain, but I think it's a bit "smarter" , as it doesn't generate bad faith arguments.
Your Markov chain based keyboard prediction is a few tens of billions of parameters behind state of the art LLMs, but pop off queen...
Thanks for the unprompted mansplanation bro, but I was specifically refering to the comment that replied "JuSt lIkE hUmAn BrAin", to "they generate data based on other data"
That's crazy, because they weren't even talking about keyboard autofill, so why'd you even bring that up? How can you imply my comment is irrelevant when it's a direct response to your initial irrelevant comment?
Nice hijacking of the term mansplaining, btw. Super cool of you.
Oh my god, we've got a sealion here.
Fine, I'll play along, chew it up for you, since you've been so helpful and mansplained that a keyboard is different than LLM:
My comment was responding to anthropomorphization of software. Someone said it's not human because it just generates output based on input. Someone else said "just like human brain", I said yes, but also just like a keyboard, alluding to the false equivalence.
Clearer?
I'm not sure if you know what sealioning is...
