Yep, a great summary.

I keep telling people that what they call AI (e.g. LLMs) are fancy autocomplete. Little more.

They're sentence-constructing machines. Very advanced ones. There was one in the 80s called Racter that spat out a lot of legible text that was basically babble. Now it looks like it isn't babble and that's sometimes the case.

Essentially auto-predict 2.0

Fucking cool and it annoys me to no end that it gets slated because of unrealistic expectations.
