    I’ve often seen people on Lemmy confidently state that current “AI” thinks and learns exactly like humans and that LLMs work exactly like human brains, etc.

      Are you sure this wasn’t just people stating that when it comes to training on art there is no functional difference in the sense that both humans and AI need to see art to make it?

      Weird, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that even remotely claimed.

      Closest I think I’ve come is the argument that legally, AI learning systems are similar to how humans learn, namely storing information about information.

        It’s usually some rant about “brains are just probability machines as well” or “every artists learns from thousands of pictures of other artists, just as image generator xy does”.
