I honestly believe GP comment demonstrates a level of gullibility that AI hypesters are exploiting. Generative LLMs are text[1] generators, statistical machines extruding plausible text. To the extent that it a human believes it to be credible, the output exhibits all the hallmarks of a confidence game. Once you know the trick, after Toto pulls back the curtain[2], its not all that impressive.
