How do you know anything is correct? LLMs can be wrong, humans can be wrong, you can be wrong. The motto of the royal society, is "Nullius in verba" which is a latin phrase : "take nobody's word for it," that's LITERALLY the motto of the royal society. Its your job as a scientist and critical thinker to test assumptions, oberve reality and use empirical inquiry to seek truth, and in the process, question ALL sources and test all assertions, from multiple angles if required.

amusing that this comment contains a subtle appeal to authority. "take nobody's word for it" -- you can take the Royal Society's word for that
