I have and to quote Wittgenstein all this is like saying the machine has a toothache.

It is just complete nonsense.

No one believes a pocket calculator is thinking just because it produces the correct output.

To believe the LLM is thinking you have to find the demarcation between the pocket calculator and the LLM. Good luck with that.

Actually there are people who believe that a calculator is "thinking" just a tiny bit, and that LLMs are thinking a bit more.

To believe that a human is thinking, you have to find the demarcation between a brain and a neuron. Then between a neuron and a cell. Then between a cell and a protein. Then between a protein and a molecule.

Good luck with that.
