This is the way I perceive my thoughts. I don't know what I'm going to think of beforehand or in advance, these could all be stochastic "tokens" based on what I've observed in my life.

So of course I feel a bit offended when people claim LLMs are just stochastic parrots, because it doesn't feel to me, that I'm specifically any better?

My thoughts - they just happen, and sometimes not in my favor - I have had times of depression, I didn't have control over my thoughts. Neither do I have now, but at least I am in a better place. Because the "happiness" chemicals are regulated to be in a more favorable state to me for various different factors.

I didn't know what I was going to comment in response to your comment, I was just streaming my conscious.
