Really? I can guess at what spicy autocomplete might actually mean but I doubt a LLM ... OK ChatGPT did a pretty good job of it (I've just asked it), whilst sidestepping the definition of spicy in this context. It is after all a very good next word guesser, given a context, and its not ... me! I am capable of hallucinating but it was 30 odd years ago since I hunted out certain fungi on Dartmoor, or smoked hemp. To be fair, we humans do often interrupt each other to second guess a sentence completion. Done correctly it is a brief satisfying collaboration. Done wrong ... I've been married for 18 years and know when to bite my tongue, but I still get it wrong from time to time - sometimes deliberately. Despite that, me and the wiff can autocomplete each other's sentences with uncanny accuracy and end up with perfect harmony or a cough slight disagreement as a result. We are getting some phenomenal slide rules these days but the darleks are not going to be flying up the stairwell just yet, nor will SkyNet be taking over tomorrow. That said, you just know that some noddy is trying to sell a nuclear "deterrent" LLM AI thingie somewhere. Thankfully, production military equipment takes quite a while to get to deployment. There is a good chance that we will get to grips with all this stuff before SkyNet is let loose for real 8)
