Is there a non-obvious reason using something like Python to solve queries requiring calculations was not used from day one with LLMs?

Because it‘s not a feature of the LLM but the product that is built around it (like ChatGPT).

  • It's true that product provides the tools, but the model still needs to be trained to use tools, or it won't use them well or at the right times.
