Since we're naming fallacies: appeal to authority. I'm a Astronaut Scientist Millionaire Cowboy and I say you're wrong

Can you get your fallacy definitions right at least? It's not appeal to authority if the person being referenced has the qualifications or experience in the subject being discussed. I have worked with the technology for a decade. I've trained countless neural network models for various purposes. I understand the technology.

Begging the question

No. You are literally trying to debate established facts.

Ad Hominem

This would be true if I didn't address the point multiple times. This was me offering an explanation for why you keep getting it wrong.

Then you should have linked those, not Wikipedia

I did link to multiple scientific sources. You just gave up before even getting to halfway.

"Modeled loosely on the human brain." So again your source straight up says it does not function like a human brain.

No, it literally says in multiple sections (that I quoted) that neural networks are designed by modelling biological brains. It doesn't matter if it's "loosely", "exactly", "somewhat", or "kinda". It's modelled "loosely" because the human brain is incredibly complex. Quite possibly the most complex thing known of. The distinction here in the ONE quote you cherry-picked is that it said human brain. The distinction is the word "human".

Interesting how you cut out the words "prevents the LLM from" that immediately preceded that.

I literally didn't. It's literally in my quote on italics. I'll refer to my previous (ad hom) statement about your reading comprehension.

None of that indicates a capacity to reason.

Then go back to the links you conveniently skipped over.

I thought we were talking about LLMs, not ANNs, and an attempt to emulate does not imply success.

It hurts. You actually hurt my brain. An LLM is literally an artificial neural network. How do trolls like you actually think?

Someone with an actual argument doesn't need to resort to personal attacks every other paragraph.

Nothing I said is a personal attack. Remaking that you must not have good reading comprehension is insulting, but not a personal attack.

They can simply present their argument.

I have; very simply, in fact. I just genuinely do not think you have the reading comprehension or capacity to understand.

Ah yes, you've been getting a lot of "support and agreement" from the other people reading your comments.

Sure, the 10 people who commented on this post who are not reading our convo is such an indication of support.

Remaking that you must not have good reading comprehension is insulting, but not a personal attack.

I was going to reply to other things until I read this. It really displays why continuing is a waste of time. You insist I lack reading comprehension in the same sentence that you insist a literal personal attack is not a personal attack.

Finally something we can agree on. Continuing this is a waste of time.

You don't accept evidence, so there's nothing left to be said.
