It occurs to me that another outcome of the LLM as genie discussion is that against all odds you do create a machine that can predict the future, that understands and can use the butterfly effect, and...
I haven't thought about The Butterfly Effect for a long time. This is the idea that some systems are chaotic, a small change to the initial conditions can result in a massive change in the outcome. A butterfly flaps her wings in Tokyo and next week there is a hurricane in Florida.
Not all systems have this property. And even those that do have limits. You can't say that a butterfly flaps her wings in Tokyo and there is a hurricane in Mongolia. Because that's impossible.
