In sci-fi, AI devices (like self-driving cars or ships, or androids) seem like an integrated unit where any controls or sensors they have are like human limbs and senses. The AI “wills” the engine to start. I always imagined AI would be like a single organism where neurons are connected directly to the body.
Given the development of LLM:s and how they are used, it now seems more likely that AI will be an additional “smart layer” on top of the dumb machinery, and actions are performed by emitting tokens/commands (“raise arm 35 degrees”) that are sent to API:s. The interaction will be indirect in the way that we control the TV with the remote.
