Q: Count the letters in 'Hippopotamus'.

A: 9 letters

Wrong! The "Large Language Model" obviously lacks a coherent understanding of language.

"Language" is supposedly it's bread and butter but the "language" it produces is "correct" only from a statistical perspective.

In other words, it simply can't be trusted --- because it lacks any coherent understanding of what you or it are saying/asking.

LLMs fundamentally turn computing on it's head. Instead of accurate results at low cost, they produce inaccurate results at high cost.
