thinking

See, this is where I think you're wrong. There's no thinking going on. It's a probability analysis based on word adjacency in a text dataset, with a little bit of $RND thrown in. If you ask the same question multiple times, you'll get different answers because of the presence of the random seed. If you ask it why chocolate coated shrimp is a bad idea, it's not going to answer based on culinary training saying that those two flavour profiles don't belong together, it's going to say no because some other crazy person actually tried it and that data made it into the dataset. (And yes, someone did, I checked...)

    This is why people who don't know how computing works should be banned from touching anything LLM adjacent. The amount of misinformation makes me pull my hair out. Even them calling it "AI" is idiotic and I correct anyone using the term. It's a word generator. Or if you will, a bullshit generator built on stolen knowledge then sold back to you as slop.
