If I had to guess, their plan was probably to feed all the data into an AI and then something magical would happen and it would tell them everything they want to hear.

I'm being glib, but I'm frustrated that with all the advancements with RNNs, image processing, vocal processing, and other AI fields, Generative AI is sucking up all the oxygen. The emergent properties of LLMs are interesting but
