My personal take is that there has been no progress - potentially there has been a regression on all LLM things outside of coding a scientific pursuits - I used to have great fun with LLMs with creative writing stuff, but I feel like current models are stiff and not very good prose writers.
This is also true for stuff like writing clear but concise docs, they're overly verbose while often not getting the point across.
