- saghm 2y agoThe example I used to hear to demonstrate this type of logical fallacy is that even though one woman can make a baby in 9 months, having eight other women help doesn't make the baby available after a single month. I guess this might need to be updated to "one woman and eight LLMs can't make a baby in one month".
