"Eventually" here is something on the order of a few expected lifespans of the universe.
The fact that we're getting meaningful results out of LLMs on a human timescale means that they're doing something very different.
Yes, the space is indeed deep/wide, but LLMs probably cull the herd as they proceed so they eliminate swathes as they go. Smart fuzzing in a way.
