@wesdym@mastodon.social I agree, but I don't think that undermines the analogy to LLMs.

@curtmack@floss.social Indeed. Pretty much the same thing is happening now, only magnified. The answers sound cogent, sensible, informed, and even 'intelligent'. I noticed years ago that people confuse performance with competence, which fact makes it easier to con people, be it pennies or politics. I've often been accused of being AI myself -- as near as I can tell, just because I write well enough to seem like it to some people.
