Yes, exactly. LLMs are lossy compressors of human language in much the same way JPEG is a lossy compressor of images. The difference is that the bits that JPEG throws away were manually designed by our understanding of the human visual cortex, while LLMs figured out the lossy bits automatically because we don't know enough about the human language processing chain to design that manually. LLMs are useful but that doesn't make them intelligent.
