You come up with very interesting points, and I'm thankful for that. But I also think you're missing the crux or my message. LLMs don't experience the world the same way humans do. And they also don't think in the same way. So you can train them very far with enough input data, but there will always be a limit of what they can understand compared to a human. If you want them to think and experience the world in the same way, you basically have to create a complete human.

My example about the visualization was just an example to prove a point. What I ultimately mean is the whole complete human experience. And besides, if you give it eyes, what data are you gonna train it on? Most videos on the internet are filmed with one lens, which doesn't give you a 3D visual. So you would have to train it like a baby growing up, trial on error. And then again we're talking only about the visual.

Hellen Keller wasn't born blind, so she did have a chance to develop her visual brain functions. Most people can visualize things with their eyes closed.

Chess engines cannot see like a human can. When they think they don't necessarily think using the exact same method that a human uses. Yet train a chess engine for a very long time and it can actually end up understanding chess better than a human can.

I do understand the points you are attempting to make. The reason you're failing to prove your point is not because I am failing to understand the thrust of what you were trying to argue.

Imagine you were talking to someone who was a rocket scientist, and you were talking to them about engines and you had an understanding of engines that was predicated on your experience with cars. You start making claims about the nature of engines and they disagree with you they argue with you and they point out all these ways that you're wrong. Is this person going to be doing this because they're not able to understand your points? Or is it more likely that their experience with engines that are different than the engines that you're used to give them a different perspective that forced them to think of the world in a different way than you do?
