I agree. The McCullough-Pitts paper was published in 1943.

What do you mean by "mathematical system"? AFAIK the GPT4 model is literally a computer program.

This is the same assertion that OP made and I'm still confused as to how anyone could be certain of its truth given that no one actually knows what is going on inside of the GPT4 program.

Is that an argument for the claim "LLMs don't think."? It doesn't seem like it to me, but maybe I'm mistaken.
