Some people think that LLMs are true AGI or at least they have thoughts that run along those lines even if they can't articulate it like that.
They tend to be people who aren't particularly tech savvy and so they see this thing that seems to be pretty much a miracle of technology and believe that it truly is a super intelligence.
I've seen evolution simulators come up with some truly interesting behaviour, like finding shortcut glitches in Mario that no human has ever found, if I didn't know how the program worked I suppose I might believe that there was some intelligence there.
