This is a limitation of the training data. If you were uncertain about something, you wouldn’t write a book about it. The kinds of people you’re talking about tend to generate far more text in their lives than others, because they can spend more time generating - writing books, blogposts, whatever - and less time thinking and working and actually doing things. The models never say they’re uncertain because we never say we’re uncertain, or at least we don’t write it down anywhere.
