If you don’t have a good idea of how LLM’s work, then they’ll seem smart.

Not to mention the public tends to give them portentious powers, like being on the verge of free will and malevolence - like every inanimate object that ever came to life in a horror movie.

I like the A large plinko game pin board. the plinko analogy. If you prearrange the pins so that dropping your chip at the top for certain words make’s it likely to land on certain answers. Now, 600 billion pins make’s for quite complex math but there definetly isn’t any reasoning involved, only prearranging the pins make’s it look that way.

LLMs probably are as smart as people if you just pick the right people lol.
