I was interested in neural nets over thirty years ago. A friend of mine was engrossed in them and taught me a lot. They were hot for a while, but then they faded away. As the AI winter began thawing, I dipped in periodically to see how it was progressing. The results were getting amazing. However, I tended to see these large language models as just dynamically crafting code to fit specific data.
