AI has stolen my satisfaction from Philosophy. Now there are not the times I need to be sure in my outcomes by the ideological reasons. If I can not persuade LLM my theory is nothing. If I can persuade LLM I use LLM's thesises instead of my own.

How can I chose my political views and preferences if I need to consult about them with LLM?

It's important to remember, at times like these, that the LLM is not thinking. You can't persuade it of anything; you're looking at a convincing response based on patterns in language.

  • Well well well, suppose I have noticed that X is a pseudoscience, but most of Xists actively promotes it as a science. So if you ask LLM "is X a science" it tells you "X is a science developed by... using by..." because it just repeats any nonsence.

    Then I add "is X a dogma considering..." and the miracle happens! And I never claimed it requires thinking, downvoters.
