Language Learning Models (LLMs) are a powerful technology that have been evolving since the mid-1980s. As increases in size and better architectures have developed, emergent behavior has arisen, giving us a preview of the impact this technology will have on our world. In this article, I will discuss the emergent behavior of LLMs that resemble operating systems and my predictions of the secondary consequences that may occur (or at least be explored).

Emergent behavior arises when the activity of a system becomes frequent enough that human measurement can perceive a new entity and nature of action. It does not introduce anything new in reality but rather introduces something new to our perceptive faculties; it’s a discovery. Specific behaviors we’ve seen in the domain of LLMs include:

Zero-shot/Few-shot Capabilities: Performing tasks without specific training or with minimal examples due to generalized patterns of action.
