Yes, GPT and LLMs got to be the most significant leap in the field of AI from 2010s onwards...It kinda "solves" NLP. It is the best human-language-based UI that humanity has every created.

But the point is, this thing does not understand what it's doing...it's become a cliche but the people who coined the term "statistical parrot" really knew what's up.

Like, I think there could be some GOFAI technique that may solve "figuring out how to use a tool like imagemagick/ffmpeg" mathematically, formally and deterministically.

And again, I'm all basing my view on the fact that this "emerging intelligence" is a mirage.
