Wow.. a trumped up google search.. good work!
I think everyone who uses LLMs as oracles should be pilloried.
I used one to put punctuation in a YouTube google video transcript recently. It took about 45 seconds, start to finish. It would have take me much longer.
Should I be pilloried?
Did you assume that it dispensed truth because it was some super intelligence or do you understand that it's just a very powerful auto-complete/spellcheck?
I did not, in fact, outsource my critical thinking skills to something with less neurons than a snail.
I get your point.
I have no problems using it when the alternative would be no answer. Just understand it's merely a very useful summarizer that you have to keep on a short leash and strangle when it misbehaves. That's why I made it put APA citations so we could all go and verify. Otherwise it will happily hallucinate sources.
Honestly even with the problems LLM could replace all tertiary sources like wikipedia and we'd be no worse off. You're getting bias either way.
