I think comparing LLM’s to bullshitters–that is, focused on the rhetoric, not the substance–is apt and insightful.
Perhaps the best way to put into words a feeling about LLM I have been coming to understand.
To be fair I feel like a lot of debates online are trapped in rhetoric. I also feel like call centers and support lines (the crap onrles anyway) are too.
Maybe the real question we need to be asking is: how do we incentivise listening, instead of parroting rhetoric?
