- jacquesm 3y agoOr as trustworthy as any other human. Humans often believe things that are objectively not true and yet they will use these things to judge other things by.
- wheels 3y agoThat's not a good analogy. Trusting an LLM right now is more akin to trusting a compulsive liar. (Another approximation would be assuming historical fiction was true.) Humans usually try not to lie, and there's a particular shape to the sorts of details they tend to forget / confuse. Compulsive liars often don't even notice themselves lying. That's closer to an LLM. I trust the output of an LLM about as much as stuff George Santos says.
