if we were having this conversation in 2023 I would agree with you, but LLM's have advanced so much that they are essentially efficient lookup tables is an oversimplification so dramatic I know you don't understand what you're talking about.

No one accuses the Dewey decimal system of thinking.

If I am so ignorant maybe you'd like to expand on exactly why I'm wrong. It should be easy since the oversimplification is dramatic enough that it made you this aggressive.

No, I don't want to waste my time trying to change the view of someone so close-minded they can't accept that LLM's do anything close to "thinking"

Sorry.

[idiotsecant]

That's what I thought. Big talk, no substance.

I'm not the other poster but he's probably referring to how your comment seems to only be talking about "pure" LLMs and seems pretty out of date, whereas most tools people are using in 2025 use LLMs as glue to stitch together other powerful systems.
