While I agree that it doesn't have a physical experience, I don't think a physical experience is necessary to speak to someone.

I meant LLMs and people experience reading a book differently in the internal sense. Or at least for some people.

Of course! We hallucinate being in the character's place. The LLM can't experience that because it has no emotions.

In any case, unless you're talking about emotional intelligence, I don't think that's necessary to be intelligent.

You can lower the bar for what you consider intelligent, but that doesn't make the LLM any more capable.

And no, I am not talking about emotions in regards to reading a book. Do you simply experience a book as a set of words and emotions attached to those words? I think you are selling yourself short in order to put LLMs on a pedestal.
