 The term "AI" is misleading and annoying.
Imo, LLMs unfuck two main things: interfaces and search. 
1) Interfaces: we go from 'forms' type interfaces to chat/voice as our way of dealing with computers. Huge, barely scratching the surface of what this will change. 
2) Search: we go from pagerank indexing to deep learning over tokens. Google already ded. Any text is searchable, queryable. 

None of this makes an artificial mind. I doubt proper AI will come from LLMs personally, but we have enough breakthroughs here to reinvent large parts of our relationship with machines and data, and thats enough for me 🤙
