You don’t need to understand the math behind large language models in order to get that they are not minds.
Grab a linear algebra textbook, and as you read, ask yourself if a computer that could do matrix multiplication would have a mental experience.

If the answer is "no," consider: what if it did A LOT of matrix multiplication?

Still no?

That's why I say ChatGPT doesn't have a mind.
