> did he just think LLMs were _magic_? If you happened to follow this particular developer, yes he does think they're magic.

  It doesn't even take very long messing around with the things to quickly realize how much smoke and mirrors is involved. Next time you get a good response from your favorite LLM, go ahead, hit "regenerate" a few times. Look at how different the responses can be, from the same initial prompt, with just a liiiiitle push in the RNG weights. Sometimes it's remarkably correct! Sometimes it's remarkably *incorrect* and confident about it. Which one did you get this time?

    But, like, in this case, _even if the LLM was a superhuman AGI_, there is _still_ no way it could do what he wants based off the prompt he gave it because it simply would not have the sort of in-depth knowledge of the inner workings of the VA required to make these determinations. Even if we waive the "LLMs are bit shit" stipulation, it still doesn't really help much.

      To be fair, a superhuman AGI should've told him that what he's trying to do is impossible. (Not that an LLM will ever get there though.)
