This is exactly what I'm talking about when I argue with people who insist that an LLM is super complex and totally is a thinking machine just like us.
It's nowhere near the complexity of the human brain. We are several orders of magnitude more complex than the largest LLMs, and our complexity changes with each pulse of thought.
The brain is amazing. This is such a cool image.
LLM'S don't work like the human brain, you are comparing apples to suspension bridges.
The human brain works by the series of interconnected nodes and complex chemical interactions, LLM's work on multi-dimensional search spaces, their brains exist in 15 billion spatial dimensions. Yours doesn't, you can't compare the two and come up with any kind of meaningful comparison. All you can do is challenge it against human level tasks and see how it stacks up. You can't estimate it from complexity.
You're missing half of it. The data cube is just for storing and finding weights. Those weights are then loaded into the nodes of a neural network to do the actual work. The neural network was inspired by actual brains.
I wonder where it got it's name from?
I have no idea. Maybe someone with a larger neural network than mine can figure it out.
