This comment makes no sense in the context of what an LLM is. To even say such a thing demonstates a lack of understandting of the domain. What we are doing here is TEXT COMPLETION, no one EVER said anything about being accurate and "true". We are building models that can complete text, what did you think an LLM was, a "truth machine"?
