@clive @thomasfuchs @Gergovie It reminds me of Prolog a bit. When I first learned it, I was like "holy shit, this is incredible". But then you learn the fundamental limitations, and how the workarounds to those limitations undermine all the good parts. Then you understand why it remains a niche technology.
It's possible we're already pretty close to the local maximum of LLMs as a technology. If so, I still do think it's pretty impressive.
