This site is for us to share our research with others. "Always verify" makes sense as a precaution, but "Do your own research" just sounds lazy and really isn't helpful.
Not everyone can "monitor the situation" to the degree of rigor that thorough research requires. Many are still waging a daily war of just trying to survive among crippling debt and overwhelming inflation. Some use GAW simply to help filter out the excess noise on X (since most posts here are just reposts of stuff from X anyway).
Please be mindful that many are not as blessed with their free time as you might be.
Sure, LLMs can be useful. They're great at analyzing content. I'm not against them on their own.
I'm simply pointing out the flaws they have and cautioning people to 1. Not put too much stock into their responses and 2. Understand that they are heavily influenced by how a person interacts with them.
I mostly object to people making elaborate efforts to "teach"/"nudge"/"train"/"educate"/"steer"/whatever LLMs in order to get the response they want and then run around waving the response they engineered like it was gospel straight from the lips of Jesus Christ.
The fact that people don't comprehend that they're basically telling the LLM exactly what they want to hear and all of it is just elaborate role playing with a chat bot is very concerning to me.
