So the output from the LLM is just a text description that's fed into another, smarter piece of software that interprets that text into an order? What task is the LLM actually doing in this case?
The LLM is taking the order. Interpreting what people say into that simple text description. Not everyone talks the same or describes things the same. That is i believe where the bulk of the LLM is doing the work. Then I'm sure there is some background stock management and health checks out manages as well
What's wrong with an input machine with buttons or touch screen?
Takes too long to hold down the button for 18,000 waters.

Not futuristic enough or something.
They are not able to answer questions or change simply via a software update.
We have apps for that, and they're typically a pita. They certainly take longer than just talking through your order.
I don't think there is an LLM in this application. Not all AI tools involve LLM.
