Well, llms are kind of in the same position as sex dolls.
Scarily close to real, and dependong on what you spend unnervingly so, but not real enough that you can’t tell there’s something missing, and also you typically don’t talk to other people about how you play with them.
LLMs don’t read close to real. And the same with sex dolls, they just look fake, and they break and can’t heal. There’s nothing scarily close about either.
Maybe that’s why I’m doing so shitty in life right now. Everything fake is obviously fake to me. I can’t ignore it. People are avoiding vulnerability (for good reason) and it’s going to ruin chances at society improving.

I agree with you. Here are three other ways LLMs aren’t close to real:
