This edit "These robots could utilize large language models." was reverted with the following comment.

"no, they couldn't, that makes no sense" (a statement made with perhaps insufficient creative thinking)

Yes, they could.

Please revert the senseless reversion of my edit if you feel called to.

In short, because this resource is primarily focused on the physical construction of these robots. It doesn't really go into the software aspect - which is, perhaps, a flaw of the resource - but that means that an offhand comment that these robots "could utilize large language models", with no further explanation or context, seems completely out of place.
To be perfectly frank, I'm not certain this is even an appropriate resource for Wikiversity. It's part of a group of sustainability/DIY articles which were created early in the site's history, and which aren't particularly well aligned with the site's purpose. But if you want to improve it, you should probably start by writing about the robot's software in general, not just by focusing on the use of LLMs. Omphalographer (discusscontribs) 18:30, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
