    what AI outputs is what I think a majority of the people want anyways. They want an answer to something in most cases.

    When I ask a question I want a correct answer, not one that is merely statistically likely. Using an AI and not fact checking it means you will never know if the answer given to your question is true. The AI tells you what it thinks you want to hear, not what it knows is true, because it doesn’t know anything, it’s a pattern matcher.

      Well, when other people ask a question, they get a page of jumbled answers, and I think we’ve proven that Karen cannot be expected to “do her own research”. AI will give a more correct answer 99/100 times.

      I’d love to know what questions you’ve asked an LLM and gotten wrong answers from – with the exceptions of math and continuity questions, which we already understand LLMs have trouble with.
