and i will just add , it is LLM use but not only ,with agentic AI too,agentic AI that use a lot of algorithm (not only LLM) , algorithms created by humans. (even if they could now be implemented by AI but with a lot of specifications hand written by humans) and algorithms still remains, ideas and human creation from human creativity.
