yes, I still wonder how LLMs managed to generate this expectation, given that they have no innate sense of "truth" nor are they designed to return the most truthful next token.
- ang_cire 2y agoThat expectation emerged because that has largely been the goal of the field of AI research since it's inception. LLMs stepped into a field that has existed in popular consciousness for decades and decades, and the companies running LLMs for public use *sell* them on the idea that they're useful as more than just expensive text-suggestion machines.
