LLMs get better and better and do more and more things. But I still get the impression "their thinking isn't human thinking" by the way that their ability "understand" something shifts and fades as the discussion continues. And these can be things that it previously explained to me.

When I look at a person moving in front of me, I don't have to recheck if their bone structure is going shift as they more - it just won't. So, as a human, I don't naturally notice things of that sort. So I don't notice all the ways an AI video is wrong unless I concentrate. Which is saying that LLMs are wrong in ways we aren't accustomed to. They drift in their interactions and seeming understanding. Perhaps "random walk parrot" is better than "stochastic parrot" but I still say a word that communicates that they're "things that aren't quite doing what you think they're doing" is legitimate.
