That is what LLMs do in EVERY conversation. Most of the time you don’t notice it, because it fits your expectations.

You know that answer unavailable is better because you have real intelligence, an LLM is just some mathematical functions so it can’t do that. If it could it would be getting much closer to actually being AI.

Right. They’re text generators. That’s the technology. It can’t do what you’re demanding because that’s not how it works. LLMs aren’t magic answer machines. They don’t know when to say “answer not available”. They don’t know what they’re being asked. They don’t know anything.
