Unless they've had some reinforcement learning, I'm pretty sure thats all LLMs ever really do.

Even with reinforcement learning, you can still find phrases and patterns that are repeated in the smaller models. It's likely true with the larger ones, too, except the corpus is so large that you'll have fat luck to pick out which specific bits.
