It's akin to saying "swinging a hammer is the easy part of creating a building". Or "inserting a needle into a vein is the easy part of medicine".

Both are somewhat true, and yet, I'll still be quite happy if we have AI that can do them.

I'm certainly not trying to trivialize the progress that LLMs are making. I'm trying to be realistic, noting both the strengths and weaknesses of LLMs, and what that means for the fields they touch.
