Some humans are the same.

We also don't aim to elevate them. We instead try not to give them responsibility until they're able to handle it.

Yeah... I dunno, the one person I've worked with who had LLM levels of bullshit somehow pulled the wool over everyone's eyes. Or at least enough people's eyes to be relatively successful. I presume there were some people that could see the bullshit but none of them were in a position to call him out on it.

I think I read some research somewhere that pathological bullshitters can be surprisingly successful.
