Blaming a literal mindless pieces of #tech for this is so wildly absurd it's hard to know where to begin.

An #LLM is not magical. Saying it's a statistical parrot is more accurate but also not quite right. It's a Universal Function Approximator over a graph complete semantic space which allows it to perform function approximation over information which we are able to interpret as meaningful.

This makes it halfway between a typical ML model and Tarot Cards.
