Raw LLM Responses

The difference is that the person you're replying to is having a conversation with you now, and (presumably) you're a human being with a mind that can comprehend what you're saying. The way deep learning models like GPT work is that they try to come up with the most plausible response to a prompt, but they don't have any understanding of the meaning of the response. GPT's early predecessors would literally develop a sentence one word at a time, trying to predict the most plausible next word based on an insane amount of training. GPT still does this, but basically in a much more elaborate way, using things like techniques related to contextual nuance. While you think you're having a conversation with ChatGPT about its subjective experience, it's not any more alive than a Sims character.
