LLMs are also anthrocentric simulatuon- like computers- and are likely not a step towards holistic universally aligned intelligence.

Different alien species would have simulations built on their computational, senses, and communication systems which are also not aligned with holistic simulation at all- despite both ours and the hypothetical species being made as products of the holistic universe.

Ergo maybe we are unlikely to crack true agi unless we crack the universe.
