Comment on how things become science
dustyData@lemmy.world 2 days agoNot to you, although I would bet it has done so to someone. The main issue is though, if you asked an LLM to write arguments for a flat earth, it would do so. Convincingly and insistent, without even questioning or critically analyzing why. Ask it to compare and balance arguments both ways. And it will do so as if both positions were equally real and valid.
It has no notion of reality and no convictions of its own.
It will also hallucinate fake papers and quote people that don’t exists to make its argument.

See the difference between “some people” and ALL of LLMs.

Where do you get all LLMs from?

Not unless you can find some people that believe Starfleet Academy is a real place and just skip right over all the times the paper literally overtly states it’s made up.

You doubt there will be people that’s will? Have you heard of scientologists? Have you heard of flat earthers? Antivaxxers? All of them basing their core ideals on stuff explicitly marked as bogus.
