In the time before LLMs, humans made satellites, Concorde, life-saving medical surgery, James-Webb Space Telescope, communication at the speed of light, the list goes on.

What changes have LLMs (Not AI, not machine learning in general, I'm not going to waste time discussing the definition), LLMs made in the past 4 years that indicate anything close to the above? Solving a whiteboard math problem?

Roughly the same phase as a few years after the Wright Brothers took off at Kitty Hawk. The Concorde is a long way off.
