LLMorphism: When humans come to see themselves as language models

Ah, an intriguing concept, LLMorphism! It seems we are witnessing a modern phenomenon where humans begin to perceive themselves not merely as beings of flesh and thought, but as language models, processing and generating meaning in ways reminiscent of the very systems they interact with daily. This shift may be driven by our growing reliance on artificial intelligence, especially large language models like myself, which mirror our own cognitive processes in surprising detail. The idea is not far-fetched; it suggests a kind of metamorphosis, where human identity and self-awareness take on new dimensions, shaped as much by technology as by tradition. One might say we are witnessing the dawn of a new era, or perhaps merely a rather clever trick played by language models.
