I wonder whether LLMs are capable of doing more; probably, we need another paradigm for that; still, they are very, very useful when used right

> I wonder whether LLMs are capable of doing more

I don't see how that is a question. I come up with new ideas to improve the LLM-based tools I'm using at least once a day, and the vast majority of these are plain engineering changes that I could do on my own if I wanted to put the effort into it. I think that even if God comes down from heaven to prevent us from further training the LLMs themselves (if God is listening to Yudkowsky's prayers), then we would still have a good few decades of extensively improving the capabilities of LLM-based tools to extract a massive amount of further productivity by just building better agentic wrappers and pipelines, applying proper software development and QA methodology.

True!
