"People know how it works, but somehow also ignore that..."

It's annoyingly arrogant to assume people could only be impressed having ignored that.

It's impressive to me not by ignoring that at all. Matrix multiplication is apparently capable of producing poetry, jokes, insults, abstract ideas, etc (to some level at least) - but in your mind it's a pixar movie? Words arise from a team of angels pulling levers?

Fascination is not from thinking LLM are advanced as us - fascination is from wondering how much more complicated are we than that?
