if I can verify a fact an LLM gave me I'm still:
- wasting my time needing to verify something from an inherently and unfixably untrustworthy source
- contributing to and encouraging the environmental destruction that LLMs cause
- reinforcing to big tech that LLMs are worthwhile
- increasing my mental dependence on LLMs
Sure, humans still lie and manipulate and fuck up all the time. That doesn't excuse or explain the many flaws of LLMs.
