I think some people are so eager to offload all critical thinking to the machine because they’re barely capable of it themselves to begin with.

A critical perspective, but a critical hit on a critical apspect of the critical issue with people who have critical issues critically thinking critically. They do exist though…

Some people really think these LLMs are capable of thought and reasoning. It’s horrifying.

yeah, i don’t ever see it hallucinate, but I also don’t ask it how the fuck it’s feeling
A car in this video went 107 meters in 4 seconds, how fast was it going in mph, then i napkin math to make sure it’s sane.
What are the best options for meal planning software where my family can vote on what’s for dinner and give me a grocery list and menu plan?

Have you talked to people who use LLMs regularly? They’ll acknowledge hallucinations but will downplay them as much as possible - saying they’re low frequency and they can support them, while telling you about how they’re using it in an area they’re unfamiliar with. Dunning Kruger strikes again.

It tells them it knows what it’s talking about and it speaks with confidence.
Meanwhile companies and governments won’t stfu about how powerful and great this tech supposedly is, so a percentage of people will believe the propaganda.

I’d love students to be given a lesson on tricking AI into giving a false answer. It’s not hard and should be pretty eye opening

One example I like to use is to ask it for the lyrics of an extremely well known song. It just makes shit up based on the title you give it.
The online ones (Claude, chatgpt, copilot, etc) now refuse to do it for ““copyright reasons”” but the offline ones still happily oblige. I assume the online ones added that block because it was such an obvious way to prove they don’t “know” shit.

I’d love for high school students to be taught how to ID and manage narcissists and psychopaths but that’s not gonna happen either, unfortunately

I’d love for high school students to be taught critical thinking skills, so none of this nonsense would be happening now.

Trump is president, but it’s just unfathomable that people would follow an automated idiot /s
