- OP asked for someone to make a logical argument for the separation of “training” from “model”
- I made the argument
- You cherry picked an argument against my specific example and made an appeal to emergent complexity
- I pointed out that emergent complexity isn’t limitless
- “the only people making unsupported claims in this thread are those trying to deflate LLM capabilities”Replies

To be clear, you are confusing me with other commenters in this thread. All I want is for those that liken LLMs to stochastic parrots and other deflationary claims to offer an argument that engages with the actual structure of LLMs and what we know about them. No one seems to be up to that challenge. But then I can't help but wonder where people's confident claims come from. I'm just tired of the half-baked claims and generic handwavy allusions that do nothing but short-circuit the potential for genuine insight.
You made a pretty nonsensical argument, pretty much seems like the big standard for these arguments.
What does linear regression have to do with the limitations of a stacked transfer ? Absolutely nothing. This is the problem here. You don't know shit and just make up whatever. You can see people doing the same thing in GPT-1, 2, 3, 4 threads all telling us why LLMs will never be able to do thing it manages to do later.
