Telling my kids that this was the first generative AI.

@Mrfunkedude
This is a declarative, inspectable, and deterministic algorithm that is not being sold waaay under cost price. Using a spirograph will make you think and learn instead of keeping you dumb. Using it will not kill our planet. You won't grow dependent on it and the price to use it won't increase once you do depend on it.

It's very hard to see any possible relation to LLMs.

Edit: other than maybe that both can be entertaining and are otherwise completely useless.
