That may change, particularly if the intelligence of LLMs proves to be analogous to our own in some deep way—a point that is still very much undecided. However, if the similarities are there, so is the potential for knowledge. We have a complete mechanical understanding of LLMs and can pry apart their structure, which we cannot yet do with the brain. And some of the smartest people in the world are engaged in making LLMs smaller and more efficient; it seems possible that the push for miniaturization will rediscover some tricks also discovered by the blind watchmaker. But these things are not a given.
People's illusions and willingness to debase their own authority and control to take shortcuts to optimise towards lowest effort / highest yield (not dissimilar to something you would get with... auto regressive models!) was an astonishing insight to me.
At some point you have to wonder: is an LLM making your hiring decision really better than rolling a dice? At least the dice doesn't give you the illusion of rationality, it doesn't generate a neat sounding paragraph "explaining" why candidate A is the obvious choice. The LLM produces content that looks like reasoning but has no actual causal connection to the decision - it's a mimicry of explanation without true substance of causation.
You can argue that humans do the same thing. But post-hoc reasoning is often a feedback loop for the eventual answer. That's not the case for LLMs.
