I think 30 years from now people will still be echoing this, the same way flat earthers are convinced the world isn’t a sphere. No matter how much evidence you provide to the contrary, it never seems to matter. I wonder why.
It feels like there’s an aspect of “I want to believe” in this, except in the other direction — if LLMs can come up with new information, it threatens one’s identity of what it means to be human.

- poszlem 4y agoI believe you've nailed it with this one. There's a TON of coping going on from folks. I get why people feel that way, but to me, it's kinda like plugging your ears and yelling, "La la la, I can't hear you!" "I'm not listening!"
