Generative models seem to have cognitive processes down. They can think like us, make art like us, and the like. However, these real world limitations that you point out are a puzzle to many. I think it

I study neuroscience. From what I have read in the literature (very limited) there is a lack of inhibitory processes that drive phone addiction. Basically it's like the brakes that usually tell you to
