I don't know about others, but I much prefer if some reductionist tries to conclude what's technically feasible and is proven wrong over time, than somebody yelling holistic analogies á la "it's sentient, it's intelligent, it thinks like us humans" for the sole dogmatic reason of being a futurist.

Tbh I also think your comparison that puts "UI events -> Bits -> Transistor Voltages" as analogy to "AI thinks -> token de-/encoding + MatMul" is certainly a stretch, as the part about "Bits -> Transistor Voltages" applies to both hierarchies as the foundational layer.

"chain of thought" could probably be called "progressive on-track-inference" and nobody would roll an eye.
