People should understand that words not “unaware” or “overconfident” are not even applicable to these pieces of software. We might build intelligent machines in the future but if you know how these large language models work, it is obvious that it doesn’t even make sense to talk about the awareness, intelligence, or confidence of such systems.

I find it so incredibly frustrating that we’ve gotten to the point where the “marketing guys” are not only in charge, but are believed without question, that what they say is true until proven otherwise.
“AI” becoming the colloquial term for LLMs and them being treated as a flawed intelligence instead of interesting generative constructs is purely in service of people selling them as such. And it’s maddening. Because they’re worthless for that purpose.
