Do you ever feel like we will be the last generation to know anything?
No. For all the memes and fake nonsense, LLMs still give access to a swath of knowledge at a degree easier to access. The current kids using LLMs for questions are probably going to be quite a bit smarter than us
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.
Maybe it will teach critical thinking and less trust in accepting the status quo.
Yea that didn't happen either when people were warned about false information online...
