This is what I keep saying. If these LLMs were truly as revolutionary as the hype claims, these companies wouldn't need to shove it in your face and into every thing imaginable and to beg you to use it. It wouldn't surprise me if someone tries shoving one of these into your boot loader or firmware one of these days. Then again, I also see pro-LLM people making the "Well, humans do x too" arguments too, which of course ignores the fact that if an LLM is substituting for whatever came before, then you must compare what the LLM does to how whatever it's replacing was before it, and if the LLM provides little or no improvement, then it is actively making things worse, not better.
