You need to be able to explain the goal sufficiently well, and then you need something goal-seeky to do the work, i.e. a closed-loop system.

LLMs are impersonators. They take a prompt and then make up something that relates to the prompt based on their corpus - they are open-loop systems in that sense.

I guess I was assuming the LLM would be wrapped into some larger goal-seeky thing. Explaining the goal seems like the easy part; it could be as simple as "Make it possible for execution to reach this function."
