LLMs are incapable of reasoning. They just guess the next token.

Neurons are incapable of reasoning they're just firing based on a deterministic action potential. What are neural networks doing but creating internal models of reality and guessing what's next based on patterns?

LLMs do not fit as neurons in your comparison.

Brains can reason, LLMs cannot.
