Neural networks can have senses. Hook an LLM up to a thermometer and it will respond to temperature changes.

No, it will respond to tokens telling it about a temperature change. It has no sense of warmth. It cannot be burned.

Conflating senses with cognitive awareness of sensory input is a mistake.
