You’re just rephrasing the same approach, over, and over, and over. It’s like you’re not even reading what I’m saying.

No I read what you are saying. I just think that you are something that "acts intelligent without actually being intelligent". Here is why: All that you've written is based on very simple primitive brain cells and synapses and synaptic connections. It's self evident that this is not really something that is designed to be intelligent. You're just "really good at parroting sentences". And you clearly agree that I'm doing the same 😄

Clearly LLMs are not intelligent and don't understand, and it would need many other systems to make them so. But what they do show is that the "creative spark" even though they are very mediocre in their quality, can be created by using a critical mass of quantity. It's like it's just one small part of our mind, the "creative writing center" without intelligence. But it's there, just because we added more data and processing.

Quality through quantity, that is what we seem to be and what is so shocking. And it's obvious that there is a kind of disgust or bias against such a notion. A kind of embarrassment of the brain to just be thinking meat.

Now you might be absolutely right that my specific suggestion for an approach is bullshit, I don't know enough about it. But I am pretty sure we'll get there without understanding exactly how it works.
