they don't even handle full words, it's just arbitrary groups of characters (including space and other stuff like apostrophe afaik) that is represented to the software as indexes on a list, it literally has no clue what language even is, it's a glorified calculator that happens to work on words.

I mean, isn't any program essentially a glorified calculator?

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months ago

not really, a basic calculator doesn't tend to have variables and stuff like that

i say it's a glorified calculator because it's just getting input in the form of numbers (again, it has no clue what a language or word is) and spitting back out some numbers that are then reconstructed into words, which is precisely how we use calculators.
