      You are a statistical model

      No I am not. Different onthological entities, donkey.

        Drag chooses to respect your identity as a non-statistical model. Drag’s opinions are not as important as the way you feel, and drag will make an effort to avoid upsetting you by referring to you in the wrong way.

          This is not about identification. I am a human (which is not a social construct) which exists in the real world. Statistical models don’t exist in an onthological sense.

            Drag wonders whether you’ve changed your mind about LLMs being statistical models, or whether you’ve decided there’s no such thing as LLMs.

              They don’t exist in an onthological sense, yes. (They are completely deontological; they don’t exist in the real world via representation, like vectors or matrices)

      Does drag have proof that the other user is a statistical model, or is drag guilty of dehumanizing others to fit drag’s agenda just like a Nazi would?

        A human is a kind of statistical model, so drag’s comment does not imply any specific amount of humanity, either small or large.
