I feel like if you have any belief in philosophy then LLMs can only be interpreted as a parlour trick (on steroids). Perhaps we are fanciful in believing we are something greater than LLMs but there is the idea that we respond using rhetoric based on trying to find reason within in what we have learned and observed. From my primitive understanding, LLMs rhetoric and reasoning is entirely implied based on an effectively (compared to the limitations of human capacity to store information) infinite amount of knowledge they've consumed.

I think if LLMs were equivalent to human thinking then we'd all be a hell of a lot stupider, given our lack of "infinite" knowledge compared to LLMs.
