> When you press the 2 button, the plus button, the 2 button and the equals button, you are translating your question into bits

I am not. 2 is 2, + is +, I don't care whether the machine chooses to represent them as ASCII or EBCDIC or semaphore flags.

> If you want your answer to 2+2 to always be 4, you shouldn’t use a non deterministic LLM.

Right. Determinism and locality are important. But bit-banging isn't (as long as the higher level abstractions are good).
