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.
