There’s no fundamental technical distinction. Both are composed of the same machine instructions.
LLM is just multiple matrix multiplications after one another until something useful is produced.
So your argument is that consciousness in the human brain is explained by the fact ANNs are technically algorithms because they use Matrix multiplication?
I think we can class you as a non-reasoning organism who just says whatever pattern of words sounds right.
ANNs have very little to do with actual neurons. They’re just vaguely inspired by the latter. Only thing they have in common is that neurons is in the name.
Okay but that's still not an algorithm and it still has nothing to do with where human consciousness comes from. Are you even paying attention?
