Last month I tried to use LLMs for things I didn’t know and couldn’t easily find. Every time they were either subtly wrong or outright hallucinated premises which led me to waste time until I realized they were wrong. If not for the unwarranted confidence in incorrect responses, I could say they were at least not much worse than what I could piece together from what I knew. As it stands, they are OK filling in for a rubber duck and as autocomplete.
