No. The answer, as is usually the case with these things, is that we are anthropomorphizing a step too far.

No, you are taking it too far before walking it back to get clicks.

I wrote in the headline that these models “think they’re people,” but that’s a bit misleading.

“I wrote something everyone will know is bullshit in the headline to get you to click on it before denouncing the bullshit in at the end of the article as if it was a PSA.”

I am not sure if I could loathe how ‘journalists’ cover AI more.
