I can't count the number of times I've had a support person confidently tell me something that is obviously not applicable to my problem and makes completely flawed assumptions about cs/physics/networking/logic.

I get a lot of correct answers from llms, but sometimes they make shit up. Most of the time, it's some function in a library that doesn't actually exist. Sometimes even the wrong answers are useful because they tell me where to look in the reference docs. Ask it to search the web and cite sources, makes it easier to verify the answer.

I don't appreciate what's going on with AI art and AI generated slop, but the idea that they aren't a useful tool is just wild to me.

I'm not saying it's not useful, I'm saying that we hold humans giving us answers to a much higher standard than LLMs.
