Wouldn't it be nice if LLMs emulated the real world!

They predict next likely text token. That we can do so much with that is an absolute testament to the brilliance of researchers, engineers, and product builders.

We are not yet creating a god in any sense.

I mean that the computing power available to evolution and biological processes for training is magnitudes higher than for an LLM.

Is it? Seems like C. elegans does just fine with limited compute. Despite our inability to model it in OpenWorm.
