LLMs whole goal is to sound convincing based on the training data used. That's it.
They have no self-awareness.
They are simply running maths to predict the next word they should use that will sounds plausible to a human reader.
Plenty of people still believe in the predictive power of fucking astrology, so something that spits out vaguely comprehensible words is a shoe in.
I predict an AI spouting astrology advice will be a massive hit.
I bet it's already been made
This is a baseless claim I don't know why it's getting support other than the fact the people seem to like hating on a tool.
Not hating the tool. Hating the current level of hype around LLMs. It is dotcom/blockchain all over again.
