Not good at subjects you have no previously learnt knowledge.

They tell you have "hit the nail on the head" when you really haven't.

They tell you have had a "great insight" when you are really haven't.

They give you the illusion of learning and progress but essentially give you faulty preconceptions will trip you up further down the road.

You can ask the LLM to be more critical and less sycophantic but that only gets you so far:

They want you to continue using, being dependent on and feeding data into the LLM--your independence isn't a priority.
