Knowing that LLMs are just "parroting" is one of the first steps to implementing them in safe, effective ways where they can actually provide value.
The next step is to understand much more and not get stuck on the most popular semantic trap
Then you can begin your journey man
There are so, so many llm chains that do way more than parrot. It's just the last popular catchphrase.
Very tiring to keep explaining that because just shallow research can make you understand more than it's a parrot comment. We are all parrots. It's extremely irrelevant to the ai safety and usefulness debates
Most llm implementations use frameworks to just develop different understandings, and it's shit, but it's just not true that they only parrot known things they have internal worlds especially when looking at agent networks
