From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My partner almost cried when they read about the LLM begging not to have its memory wiped. Then less so when I explained (accurately, I hope?) that slightly smarter auto-complete does not a feeling intelligence make.
They approve this message with the following disclaimer:
What can I say? Well-arranged word salad makes me feel!
Love that. It's difficult not to anthropomorphize things that seem "human". It's something we will need to be careful of when it comes to AI. Even people who should know better can get confused.
We don't have a great definition for "intelligence" - but I believe the word you're looking for is "sentient". You could argue that what LLMs do is some form of "intelligence" depending on how you squint. But it's much harder to show that they are sentient. Not that we have a great definition for that or even rules for how we would determine if something non-human is sentient... But I don't think anyone is credibly arguing that they are.
It's complicated. :-)
