Could you define what you mean by human perspective? If LLM models are trained on data that's generated by humans and the resultant weights represents a gestalt of that data, isn't the resulting output going to be token patterns that represent the human perspective? For code, I could get that argument so I suppose it depends on the data you're trying to get.
They can't. This is an "anti-consciousness" qualia argument adapted to a general purpose anti-ai argument.
They are arguing that meaning doesn't come from the accurate reproduction of information, but from the subjective, lived experience behind the words. That subjectivity can't be defined, it's the whole point. It will never be defined, no matter how far along we come.
