It is divine intervention if you believe human minds are the product of a divine creator. Most of the attribution of miraculous reasoning ability on the part of LLMs I would attribute to pareidolia on the part of their human evaluators. I don’t think we’re much closer at all to having an AI which can replace an average minimum wage full-time worker, who will work largely unsupervised but ask their manager for help when needed, without screwing anything up.

We have LLMs that can produce copious text but cannot stop themselves from attempting to solve a problem they have no idea how to solve and making a mess of things as a result. This puts an LLM on the level of an overly enthusiastic toddler at best.
