Well not recently, but isn't Kurzweil all about a hypothetical future superhuman intelligence? That's an interesting thought experiment but that's not what the current AI hype is about. LLM's by themselves are many things, but they're not intelligence, let alone superhuman intelligence.
Combined with well designed software LLM's can be used to create intelligent agents, but that's still not what Kurzweil envisions.
