This feels very much like talking to people, like the customer service rep of a company. The difference between an LLM and the human staff is the lack of context. The LLM has no idea what it's even doing at all.

There used to be this scifi idea of giving AI overarching directives like "never hurt a human" before deploying them. Seems like we aren't even at that stage yet, yet we're here trying to give brain dead LLMs more capabilities.
