I'm assuming they stuck a camera to an LLM?
Tech companies are treating LLMs like how people back in the day would put asbestos or mercury in everything. "It's good at this one thing, it's gotta work for other stuff too."
Hey, if you don't know what you're assuming, there's no point asking us.
But I'll say YES, that's what you're assuming, just so you have an answer.
Most "AI" are fancy predictive texts. Not really intelligent in the first place but a good marketing scam.
This is obviously not llm.
