This is corpo speak for "LLMs aren't going to get much better than this, which is what research had shown months ago, but we can't let users notice so we will create more wrappers, shove it into more apps, mask the mistakes, keep changing the tone and adding floating visualizations to distract you from the fact they're still shit"
