We've come back full-circle to precise and "narrow interfaces".

Long story short, it is great when humans interact with LLMs for imprecise queries, because, we can ascribe meaning to LLM output. But for precise queries, the human, or the LLM needs to speak a narrow interface to another machine.

Precision requires formalism, as what we mean by precise involves symbolism and operational definition. Where the genius of the human brain lies (and which is not yet captured in LLMs) is the insight and understanding of what it means to precisely model a world via symbolism - ie, the place where symbolism originates. As an example, humans operationally and precisely model the shared experience of "space" using the symbolism and theory of euclidean geometry.
