@hye@glammr.us you are an expert in your field. But is #1 really an issue? When i ask llms to critique my work it can definitely tell me which are serious issues which are nitpicks. Granted at your level it might not be there yet in domain expertiss but from what I hear from many researchers it's almost there , and I don't see why progress will just stop now

@aarontay@mastodon.cloud I mean, obvious nitpicks are obvious, but progress in distinguishing will depend on training data; and at a certain point in training, you'll hit the wall where the distinction depends on domain knowledge.

@aarontay@mastodon.cloud TBQH, it's also my experience that many professional knowledge-workers don't really know the difference between expertise in the form of factual knowledge; and expertise in the form of critical thinking that is used in decision-making around factual knowledge. Unfortunately, the former do end up being somewhat replaceable by a machine that can train on factual knowledge and more or less regurgitate it ad nauseam...
