What I hate even more is when you ask something problematic about another system and they immediately start by reassuring your problem is common and you’re not bad for having the issue. I just need a solution to a normal knowledge issue, why does it always have to assume I’m frustrated already and in need of reassurance?
I think because the training data includes so many troubleshooting forumn responses, which always go like this.
And even worse than that is after you get the slightly condescending spiel about how the problem is normal and real but the solution is simple… it turns out it was completely bullshitting and has zero idea what is actually causing the problem let alone a solution.
It’s awful dealing with some niche undocumented bug or a feature in a complex tool that may or may not exist and for a fleeting few seconds feels like you miraculously solved it only to have the LLM revert back to useless generic troubleshooting Q&A after correcting it.
