"Some tiny fraction of the population". Ahaha, I think that's an understatement. In my opinion, a rather large portion of the population is susceptible to many obvious forms of deception. Just look to democratic elections or the amount of slop (AI and pre-AI) online and the masses of people who interact with it. I've found so many YT channels run by LLMs and many, many people responding to it like it's an actual human being. One day I won't be able to tell either, but that still won't stop me from hearing a new fact or bit of news and doing my own research to verify it. "Mr. Taylor called the police again to warn them that his son was mentally ill and that they should bring nonlethal weapons." yeah this one's really sad...then they shot and killed the poor guy even though the cops were warned. Yay, America!
