use of words like 'figure' and 'know' are not applicable.

GPT exposes the statistically most likely outcome, from a model. the model doesn't know either: the training is people, who weight the model and tune the heuristics to satisfy goals THEY impute.

If you train GPT to 'believe' there are 380 degrees in a circle, thats what it 'figures' out from.

There is no believe no figure and no know here.
