Why do you think these details are important? The entire point of these tools is that I am supposed to be able to trust what they say. The hard work is precisely to be able to spot which things are true and false. If I could do that I wouldn't need an assistant.
- casey2 2y agoBecause it's the difference between a fleshy hallucination and something that might related to reality.

When they’re useful to me, they’re so useful they save me hours (sometimes days) and allow me to do things I couldn’t otherwise, and when they’re not they’re not. It never takes me very long to figure out which scenario I’m in, but I 100% understand and accept that figuring that out is on me and part of the deal! Sure if you think you can “vibe code” (or “vibe founder”) your way to massive success but getting LLMs to do stuff you’re clueless about without anyone way to check, you’re going to have a bad time, but the fact they can’t (so far) do that doesn’t make them worthless.
