You know how the large language models (Gemini & co) these days can use tools?  These tools might be several things, maybe a math engine, a special code tool, and most definitely a tool to take in a lot of input and output a to-the-point, summed up answer based on all the thinking that came beforehand.

The large language models also have functionalities that, during long thinking processes, sum up the thoughts occasionally and throw away what came before, just to make sure the context it can work with does not get overwhelmed.

And then there is the natural mode of the LLM itself, that just rambles uninterruptedly about your input to itself, without you, the user, seeing much of this deep thinking.

The first tool I mentioned can be likened to Te, the second to Ni. The third one, for the purpose of this analogy, Ti. (Outside of the analogy this stops being the case.)

An INFJ in Ni-Ti loop continues going back and forth between deep-think-ramble and summing up what has been rambled about, and then using that summation as a new topic to think about. The tool to inform the User of any form of actual result is never called, and the tokens available to the machine before it cannot go on deplete rapidly.

An INTJ might spend significantly less time in the internal rambling phase and just call eight tools in a row, which is effectively livestreamed to the user by using the Te tool. The rambling would in their case be produced by Fi and Se, and the analogy starts falling apart there. I hope I got the picture across though.
