That's my point though the first steam-powered vehicles were obviously promising. But all large language models can do it parrot back at you what they already know which they got from humanity.

I thought AI was supposed to be super intelligent and was going to invent teleporters, and make us all immortal and stuff. Humans don't know how to do those things so how can a parrot work it out?

Of course the earlier models of anything are bad. Although the entire concept and practicals will eventually be improved upon as other foundational and prerequisite technologies are met and enhances the entire project. And of course, all progress doesn't happen overnight.

I'm not fanboying AI but I'm not sure why the dismissive tone as if we live in a magical world where technology should have now let us travel through space and time (I mean, I wish we could). The first working AI is already here. It's still AI even if it's in its infancy.

Because I've never seen anyone prove that large language models are anything other than very very complicated text prediction. I've never seen them do anything that requires original thought.

To borrow from the Bobbyverse book series, no self-driving car has ever worked out that the world is round, not due to lack of intelligence but simply due to lack of curiosity.

Without original thinking I can't see how it's going to invent revolutionary technologies and I've never seen anybody demonstrate that there is even the tiniest spec of original thought or imagination or inquisitiveness in these things.
