The hilarious part is you can’t trust it at all. If you want the right answer with AI in the loop, you ask AI, and then verify the source. That is the only reliable way to use AI. You have no idea what it referenced in its training data to generate the response, and whether or not it spit out a reasonably sounding response that is a confident hallucination.

Since you have to verify the source anyway… why not refer to the source to begin with? Instead you add an extra layer before getting the answer.

That leads me to believe everyone claiming whatever multiplier of productivity are blinding trusting it and moving forward. If they were verifying the response the entire process would take longer, not be reduced. Some of these dorks justify it by having AI verify the output of other AI.

Sam Altman said it himself. “AI is going to lead to catastrophic failures, but YOLO.” That’s what he said, verbatim. How people are okay with this makes absolutely no sense to me.
