<p>The next step of the fallacy is to conflate the strict and colloquial senses of programmability. If you can give an LLM &quot;instructions&quot; to multiply two numbers, couldn&#39;t you give it &quot;instructions&quot; to do anything else?</p><p>Well, no. That&#39;s a giant leap, and one that&#39;s fully unsupported by evidence. But it *feels* right, if only because you can again try out common problems and find solutions somewhere in the training corpus.</p>
