Also note, if you never give the info, it’s pretty hard to falsify your paper.

LLM’s are also allowing an exponential increase in the ability to bullshit people in hard to refute ways.

But, and this is an important but, it suggests a problem with people... not with LLMs.

  • Which part? That people are susceptible to bullshit is a problem with people?

    Nothing is not susceptible to bullshit to some degree!

    For some reason people keep running LLMs are ‘special’ here, when really it’s the same garbage in, garbage out problem - magnified.

    • If the problem is magnified, does it not confirm that the limitation exists to begin with and the question is only of a degree? edit:

      in a sense, what level of bs is acceptable?
