You're being pretty pedantic about the specific term used. Everything they said makes sense if you change "prompts" to "training examples" and you wouldn't expect someone who hasn't implemented an AI model to know the difference.
It's like someone said while driving the car "let's give it some gas" and you said "but the tank is almost full" when they obviously meant "let's press the accelerator pedal"
Funnily I am interested in this semantic argument. Do LLM trainers actually feed their « beast » with prompts from the past? Especially ones that are human corrections upon false assumptions hallucinated by the LLM? As a non-specialist I would definitely see a lot of value in doing so, but I let you, experts, clarify that point.
