Certainly, we have additional input media, notably visual. We also appear to run a network training process every night based on whatever is in our short-term memory which gives us a "personal life story".

Beyond this though, what is there?

My internal dialogue appears to bubble up out of nowhere. It's presented to my consciousness in response to what I see and hear, i.e whatever is in my immediate input buffer, processed by my nightly trained neural network.

I struggle with the same classes of problems an LLM does. Teach me a new game, and I'll probably suck at it until I've practiced and slept on it a couple of times. This is pretty similar to loading it into a buffer and running a training step on the buffer data. Give me a tricky puzzle and the answer will float into my mind apparently from nowhere, just as it does for an LLM.

That's an assumption. We don't actually know how the black box gets the right words. We don't actually know how your neural network gets the right words.
