Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Except llms are just that. Large language models. All they have is words. They don’t even know what the words mean. I hate so much that it even started to get called ai in the first place. As if it had any intelligence whatsoever, let alone an artificial one.
i would interrogate this plus “intelligence” a little more. LLMs don’t “understand” in the way that we do, and personally I don’t think that they really understand at all. A dictionary containing examples also basically passes this test, for example. LLMs also don’t really have “intelligence”.
Anyway we’re very far away from figuring out consciousness anyway. Claims about LLMs being conscious are meaningless marketing.
