But this takes it back away from understanding how LLMs work to attribute personality. The “decision” isn’t a decision in how beings decide things like that. The rolling of dice on numerous vectors resulted in those words, which were then re-included into the context for another trip through the vector matrix mines to new destination tokens to assemble.

It’s dice rolls where the dies selected are based on what started out, using a bunch of lookup tables. AI proponents like to be smug and say “well you won’t find those words in the model” like “yes a compressed vector map that ends up treating words like multiple tokens, referencing others in chains, gzipped to binary, can’t be searched for strings, you are literally correct in the stupidest, most irrelevant way possible.”
