I am not so sure about that. 30 years ago Eliza was about the best you could get for "therapy" chat bots, now there are things like Replika, Elomia, Mindspa, etc. We have come a long ways in the last 30 years. Note that I am not saying good, just that we have come a long way.

And anyone who thinks a LLM is a RNG has even less clue.

No one is claiming they are sentient or that it understands what it is say, but the fact is that LLM systems are our-scoring humans on various collegiate tests, they are diagnosing diseases that medical professionals are missing.
