Why do you even think that? Children don’t ask questions? Don’t try to find answers?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sure they do. But they also trust adults a lot. Children try to find answers only because they have stimulus other than humans telling them things, but if that stimulus is missing, they will believe the adult. The environments that AI "grow up" in are different, but they are very similar from a mental perspective.

How many times have you heard the story of something hearing something false from a family member and holding it close to their heart for years?

Now that I think about children develop critical thinking at around the age of 10. Perhaps you are right. But, the question remains, will LLMs develop such critical thinking on it’s own or are we still missing something?
