“It’s just auto-complete”.. more of the same takes dabbling with the same unknowns but with high confidence. My subjective experience is that I’m basically just a spicy multi-modal auto-complete. Rarely do I ever feel like I truly “understand” something. I mostly operate on varying degrees of “confidence”. Maybe I’m just dumb like LLMs though. Maybe I have no soul?
