Many humans are also often really bad at doing speech related things when writing.

I've known many native English speakers who write things like "an healthy" (because they learned to write "an" before words starting with "h") and write poems that don't rhyme because the words end with the same letters (e.g. "most" and "cost").

Yeah, I find it weird how LLMs make a lot of the kind of mistakes that people do, but somehow this is held up as being a reason why LLMs don’t work similarly to brains.

Since discovering LLMs I’ve become convinced that my brain works like them. I really don’t know the next word I’m going to say until it’s nearly out. And since learning about how LLMs work, I really can’t argue it away.

It’s a reasonably disturbing feeling.
