> Start asking people questions about things they have no training in and you'll get bafflement, confusion, lies, fabrication, guesses, and anger. Not necessarily all from the same person.

It’s almost like we’ve taken humans and through school, TV and social media we’ve taught them to solve problems by writing essays, speeches, blog posts and tweets, and now we have human discourse that’s no better than LLMs - regurgitating sound bites when they don’t really understand the issues.

"Really understanding the issues" might just mean "deeper neural networks and more input data" for the AI though. If you are already conceding that AI has the same capabilities as most humans your own intelligence will be reached next with a high amount of probability.
