What are you talking about?

Hallucinations in LLMs are so common that you basically can't trust them with anything they tell you.

And if I have to fact-check everything an LLM spits out, I need to to the manual research anyways.

I don't really think that's a bad thing when you really think about it. Teaching kids "No matter how confident someone is about what they tell you, it's a good idea to double check the facts" doesn't seem like the worst thing to teach them.

I believe there's a better way to teach people that without consuming the electricity of a small country.

Maybe it will teach critical thinking and less trust in accepting the status quo.
