Yeah. Wouldn’t that be nice. That’s not what an LLM is, however.
Why did you assume AI = only LLM? LLMs are just one type of AI, and not the type most often used in medicine
Reid Hoffman is one of those lunatics who thinks LLMs are intelligent. His entire thing is peddling that shit.
LLMs being “search engines” is also a really popular misconception.

You're completely correct that LLMs are not search engines, of course

Oh jeeze, my apologies, poor attention paying on my part. Please carry on.
