Dang @danox.bsky.social · 02/10/2026We're in the middle of a marketing campaign with truly insane amounts of money behind it, so it makes sense that there's some confusion messaging going around. 010
Dang @danox.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I think it's simple. LLMs do work at things that LLMs are good at, like broadly categorising large amounts of data. Which is not the same as being sentient.
