I’m sorry but I find this to be the worst response possible lol.

Do you honestly not see how there is a difference between a computer regurgitating information vs a human uses what they’ve learned and applying it?

I just can’t take your argument seriously, it’s so disingenuous

One could argue that human learning is not all that different from machines training on data. We are all regurgitation our own experiences and knowledge to some degree. We certainly have things that machines don't, but LLMs can definitely come up with novel things that were not in the training data.
