of course, if you choose to ignore all the limitations they indeed have no limitations.

Nobody says they have no limitations. The question is are those limitation fundamental, i.e. can we expect improvement, say within a year.

  • When I talk about fundamental limitations, I mean limitations that can't be solved, even if they could be improved.

    We have improved hallucinations significantly, and yet it seems clear that they are inherent to the technology and so will always exist to some extent.

  • As a general architecture, an LLM also has limitations that can't be improved unless we switch to another, fundamentally different AI design that's non LLM based.

    There are also limitations due to maths and/or physics that aren't fixable under any design. Outside science fiction, there is no technology whose limitations are all fixable.
