Those analysts and commentators who use the shortcomings of a nascent technology to rule out possibilities far down the line are extremely foolish.
Whatever anyone thinks about the limitations of LLMs, or whether AI in its current form is sales hype - can anyone sensibly claim that AI 1000 years from now won't be capable of an artistic sensibility?
