This is Searle's Chinese Room posit though right? The argument that there's no abstraction or internal modelling going on. Wish I could find the post I read recently that demonstrated some fairly clear evidence though that there IS some level of internal abstraction/reasoning going on in LLMs.

Do we allow for a matter of degree, rather than a binary, of "zero" vs" "complete" understanding?
