Comment on Lies, Damned Lies, and LLMs: AI is a Con

The LLM isn’t trained to be reliable, it’s trained to be confident.
And it’s promoted by business people with the exact same skill set. I would argue though that there’s nothing wrong with what LLMs are doing: they’re doing what they were trained to do. The con is in how it’s being sold to us as a source of knowledge or understanding akin to a search engine.

Ironically I do believe AI would make a great CEO/business person. What’s horrifying about that is no matter how dystopian our situation now is, a planet run by corporations run by incompetent but brutally efficient AI CEOs seems certain to become even more dystopian.
