That's pretty cool, thanks for the extra context! (pardon the... not even pun I guess)

Also, thanks for pointing me at that specific paper; I spend a lot more of my life closer to classical control theory than ML theory so it's always neat to see the intersection of them. My unsubstantiated hypothesis is that controls & ML are going to start getting looked at more holistically, and not in the way I normal see it (which is "why worry about classical control theory, just solve the problem with RL"). Control theory is largely about steering dynamic systems along stable trajectories through state space... which is largely what iterative "fill in the next word" LLM models are doing. The intersection, I hope, will be interesting and add significant efficiency.
