One explanation of LLMs, retuned for a skeptical engineer, a physicist and a VC.
GPT-5.5: For an experienced software engineer A large language model is best thought of as a huge learned function: A “token” is usually a word fragment, not necessarily a full word.

Nova Premier 1.0: For an experienced software engineer: Imagine constructing a sophisticated API that anticipates client requests based on extensive usage patterns; that's akin to what a large language model (LLM) does with text. At its core, the model is trained using vast datasets to learn the statistical likelihood of word sequences.

A consulting contract with traps in it. Find them, then fix them.
