lol it's just a program that tries to do everything with any data you throw at it (whatever happened to UNIX philosophy...) but using insane amounts of computing power. General purpose models will always, ALWAYS eventually run into the wall of the second law of thermodynamics.
LLM extensions... yeah we had a tool for that. It's called an OS and programs.
Until we don't overcome the limitations of current computers, replacing code with training data and hoping it will be as good and efficient is a naive pipe dream.
