As an aside, getting things wrong isn’t simply about not being smart enough, it’s also about the model insufficiently assessing whether it actually knows enough to conclude that some hypothesis is correct. As a human I have inner feelings of certainty and uncertainty regarding the things I am thinking about, which guide me in what I need to ascertain or verify more closely. My impression is that LLMs are lacking in that area, and it’s why they are most effective when there are external verification mechanisms.
