Yes, and its not exactly strictly accurate (at least on a more useful level than a description which simplifies to a Turing machine would be, which would be technically accurate, too) as to exactly how models work, which is why I said “(simplified)”, but it is, I think, accurate enough for the question asked.
The AI “magic”, such as it is, is in the shape of the function that “decides” what output to produce for a given input, not in deciding to produce output at all.
