There's still a missing factor i suspect tho. Given how frequently wrong and hallucination prone humans are, i don't think we're _that_ different in this context. Nonetheless we can somehow inspect our thoughts, and come up with a degree of confidence. But what gives us that ability? I don't trust human thought at all. Police have to be careful what they say as to not pollute the minds of anyone they're questioning - we're just insanely prone to flat out lie without knowing. So to one degree, we seem quite similar to hallucinating LLMs. So what gives us the ability to nonetheless identify "truth" from our memory? Is it an ability to trace back to training data? The less clear the path is, perhaps the more likely we think we don't "know" the answer?
