I'm pretty sure the initial post said "humans had to prompt", or otherwise insinuate a human in the loop.

Right. Even when an LLM prompts an LLM, what prompted the first one in the chain?

  • You are describing the " unmoved mover", an argument for the existence of God

    • I don't think so...? Maybe I'm understanding the article wrong? I get the overlay, but I'm being specific to LLM chains... They require something to kick them off, they do not act autonomously. A human does something, types, speaks, presses a button, whatever. A Cron Job firing off is the result of a prior prompt, by a human.

      I don't follow the chain further back than that, as I believe humans have free will. I get that that's debated, but thats why I draw the line at human action.
