I’ve had that signaling discussion here a few times. With a person, usually they’ll give you some indication (explicitly or not) that they’re uncertain of the correct answer, or they’ll have a relevant track record to help you evaluate their honesty.
No such luck with ChatGPT.

- montebicyclelo 4y agoPeople were asking chatgpt multiple times, and then taking the most common working answer. Guess that's kind of a method to estimate it's confidence.
