Counterpoint: Why should they learn about it?
It is a good thing to reduce ignorance, but there is more to learn in the world than there is time to learn or space in the brain. People must specialise.
You must accept that not everyone will understand everything, and this is okay.
The nature of a Large Language Model is very specialist knowledge, data regurgitation is apt from a distance, especially when most publically available models are primarily used for search.
Criticism must be accepted, even from those who do not understand, so long as it's in good faith. It is after all an opportunity to reduce ignorance to someone with the time and interest to learn.
Don't rudely lord your intelligence over someone else, it might not end well, and invalidates the delivery of your entire argument.

The reason he should learn about it is because he's talking about it as though he's informed and he is not. I don't have to be a LLM programmer working at openai to have a working knowledge of how these machines function. It's literally just a Google search. He made an unreasonable ignorant comment and I called him out. He should feel ashamed and I have absolutely no reason to pad down what I'm saying under the guise of being nice.
