This seems to be an important article.
However it uses various terms that I'm not sure of the definition for.
E.g. the word "Tool".
How can I learn about the definitions of these words? Will reading prior articles in the series help? Please advise.

It's an _incredibly_ important concept to understand if you have even a passing interest in LLMs. You need to understand it if you want to have any kind of mental model for how LLM-powered agents are even possible.
One who lacks the mental capacity to know he is being used. A fool. A cretin. Characterized by low intelligence and/or self-esteem.
Disclaimer: I only cite definitions from Urban Dictionary, but I remain firmly convinced they are correct definitions in context.
