LLMs are incredibly boring to me as a technology..Not in terms of what it can do, but how it works.

Same for me. Neural networks in general.

I first studied them in 2011, and I was like what? Just a bunch of partial derivatives?

I keep looking at AI to check if now it's something else but it keeps being gradient descent.

Okay, it's great that you can perform miracles using gradient descent but that doesn't make it captivating in any way.
