What exactly do you think LLMs are

LLM and ML are very different.

Are you sure you haven’t surrendered all your thinking to the machine?

I don't use AI because it sucks.

No, they're not. Any line you try to draw between them is a lie you've convinced yourself of. There's no arguing with a take this detached from reality, though.

Edit: Okay smartarse, go ahead and explain how LLMs are not products of machine learning technology. Explain how these two things are unrelated. You're going to have to actually learn about training transformer layers to make any kind of argument, so you're going to pretty quickly realise you're entirely fucking wrong, and then you can scurry off to not acknowledge it here.
