    Yeah no shit, AI doesn’t think. Context doesn’t exist for it. It doesn’t even understand the meanings of individual words at all, none of them.

    Each word or phrase is a numerical token in an order that approximates sample data. Everything is a statistic to AI, it does nothing but sort meaningless interchangeable tokens.

    People cannot “converse” with AI and should immediately stop trying.

      We don’t think either. We’re just a chemical soup that tricked ourselves to believe we think.

        A pie is more than three alphanumerical characters to you. You can eat pie, things like nutrition, digestion, taste, smell, imagery all come to mind for you.

        When you hear a prompt and formulate a sentence about pie you don’t compile a list of all words and generate possible outcomes ranked by statistical approximation to other similar responses.
