I am at least partially influenced by the fact that I did read Paul Churchland when I was younger, and came to much this sort of belief: "It is very common to see confident assertions that LLMs mimic language use but do not really understand or use it the way that we do, that LLMs do not really reason or think, that they cannot know or understand things. On examination, these claims are often grounded in a folk-psychological understanding about how we think, know, or use language, or, at best, in ideas from philosophy or cognitive psychology that are profoundly disengaged from any understanding of the underlying mechanisms of the brain."
