    Because LLMs see tokens, not letters or words. It’s like showing a human a strawberry and asking them how many atoms it contains.

      Sounds like a genuine shortcoming of the technology as it’s being presented to forced on the public

        An LLM also can’t bake a cake, decorate a Christmas tree, or bench-press 100kg.

        Just understand what LLMs are good at, use them for that, and don’t throw your hands up and declare it useless because it can’t magically do something it was never designed to do in the first place.
