No. The seasoned gambler can not learn things that measurably increase their chance at the Roulette, whereas they definitely can do that with an LLM. And the LLM itself becomes smarter over time through hardware upgrades, software updates a

How could it be? Everything it does it does with its caller's privilege. It's not hacking your machine. Run it as root it will have root caps, run it as ritcgab it will have ritcgab's caps. Same as every other program.

Take a walk in any museum, I'm pretty sure you'll react to some of the art displayed there and find it cool before you read the name of the artist.

If Libreoffice, in addition to not have feature parity with MS Office, now has a similar per-seat pricing... what exactly is the value proposition?

Exactly. And it seems that "many people" do not, in fact, support this change, to the point Libreoffice felt necessary to defend it after the fact on their official website. Maybe "many people" remember what's be
