alt Hacker News> It's matrix multiplication.
Hilarious critique. If you weren't as mathematically illiterate as you likely are, you would know how general matrix operations are, and how essentially any algorithm (including human cognition) can be implemented using them as an intermediate.

Being correct doesn't give you licence to use insults.
I'm not. But I'll concede you are possibly more literate - I won't dox myself on this account.
Congratulations.
If you honestly argue that LLM computation and human cognition are equivalent there is no further argument to be had - it's immediately a philosophical or worse a religious argument that cannot be won.
However, that we're even arguing on that level baffles me. How did this happen! They're glorified calculators.
They really marketed the hell (sorry) out of LLMs.
