> This saved time I would otherwise have spent debating with coworkers. But it’s not always right and it is easily led astray (and will lead astray), so you need a clear idea in mind, a firm hand, and good judgment.
The “will lead astray” part is concerning. If you already have a clear idea in mind, you probably don’t need to have the debate with coworkers.
If you are having a debate with coworkers or AI, you would rather that they be knowledgeable enough to not lead you astray.
In cases where I don’t have a clear understanding of some area, yet I don’t have someone knowledgeable to talk to, I have found myself having to discuss the same point with multiple LLMs from multiple angles to tease out the probable right way.
In summary: obviate experts, receive correct guidance, save time —- pick any two.
