Without getting too pedantic for no reason… I think it’s important to not call this an LLM.

This isn’t an LLM. It’s a product powered by an LLM. You don’t get access to the model you get access to the product.

An LLM can’t do a web search, an LLM can’t convert Excel files into something and then into PDF. Products do that.

I think it’s a mistake to say I don’t trust this engine to get me here, rather than it is to say I don’t trust this car. Because for the most part, the engine, despite giving you a different performance all the time is roughly doing the same thing over and over.

The product is the curious entity you have no control over.
