Well yeah, LLMs, unlike bodies, aren’t punished for doing stupid things.

If it spins around in circles arguing with itself, it has still accomplished its purpose - to generate text. But a real body penalizes you for wasting time when looking for food.

Yes they are punished have you not heard of backprop?

Sure but that’s not equivalent to muscular expenditure - every action costs energy so animals learn to be efficient with their movements and thoughts. Also, an LLM cannot re-adjust its weights in realtime like a brain can.
