That is a bold statement that would need proof to back it up in both cases. So far it is only dogma. And unlike humans, we actually have research hints that this assumption is false for LLMs. Just because the state is not human-explainable doesn't mean it does not exist. The same is true btw for any physical "state" that may or may not exist in the human brain. Everything else is religion and metaphysics.


You're either trolling or being incredibly obtuse. LLMs are not conscious, they're guess-the-next-state algorithms. This is so dumb I can't believe I have to share a planet with people who are losing touch with such a fundamental reality
