You are right, but doing all that is incredibly cumbersome, at least to some people, which is why they don’t like working with LLMs.
My mind generally uses language as little as possible, I have no inner monologue running in the background.
Greatly prefer something deterministic to random bs popping up without the ability of recognizing it.
I don’t like llms but sometimes use them as autocomplete or to generate words, like a template for a letter or boilerplate scripts, never for actual information (à la google).
I don't use it exclusively, but damn does it help in the right places.
