This will produce a list of two messages, the first one being a system message, and the second one being the HumanMessage we passed in.
This will produce a list of four messages total: the system message plus the three messages we passed in (two HumanMessages and one AIMessage).
If we had passed in 5 messages, then it would have produced 6 messages in total (the system message plus the 5 passed in). If we had passed in 5 messages, then it would have produced 6 messages in total (the system message plus the 5 passed in).
This is useful for letting a list of messages be slotted into a particular spot. This is useful for letting a list of messages be slotted into a particular spot.
