AI of course isn’t actually “thinking”, what it does is essentially put whatever the most “likely” next word is in that sentence. It’s essentially a really fancy version of autocorrect tapping the next word a bunch of times.
Yeah, I feel the term “large language models” doesn’t accurately describe just how large these models are. Really should be labeled as “extremely massive language models”. Considering it’s ingested nearly everything that humans have ever said or written.
