<div>This is typical of all your arguments, Giovanni, and why I
no longer take you seriously. If I showed you evidence that
because 2+2=4, GPT-4 is unconscious just as it claims to be,
you would probably tell me that mathematics is obsolete and
try to replace it with some half-baked theory of your own to
replace mathematics. just as you want to do now with
the well-established science of linguistics. </div>

Well done, Gordon. You've reached the "if you can't criticise the
