I think when I write, so the machine must also think when it writes.
What is it exactly you do when you “think”? And how is it different from what LLM does? Not saying it’s not different, just asking.

What if instead of words a model would show you images to solve a problem? Would it change anything?
I generally only use a step by step process if I'm following steps given to me.
It's perfectly valid to say "I don't know", because no one really understand these parts of the human mind.
The point here is saying "Oh the LLM thinks word by word, but I have a magical black box that just works" isn't good science, nor is it a good means of judging what LLMs are capable or not capable of.
I'm open to saying that the machine is "thinking", but I do think we need more clear language to distinguish between machine thinking and human thinking.
EDIT: I chose the wrong word with "thinking", when I was trying to point out the logical fallacy of anthropomorphizing the machine. It would have been more clear if I had used the word "breathing": When I write I'm breathing, so the machine must also be breathing.
