Ackually 🤓, gemini pro and other similar models are basically a loop over some metaprompts with tool usage including using search. It will actually reference/cite documentation if given explicit instructions. You’re right, the anthropomorphization is troubling. That said, the simulacrum presented DOES follow directions and it’s (meaning the complete system of LLM + looped prompts) behavior can be interpreted as having some kind of agency. We’re on the same side, but you’re sorely misinformed, friend.
