And where does LLM take the answer? Forum and socmed. And if LLM don't have the actual answer they blabbering like a redditor, and if someone can't get an accurate answer they start asking forum and socmed.
So no, LLM will not replace human interaction because LLM relies on human interaction. LLM cannot diagnose your car without human first diagnose your car.
LLM's are completely incapable of giving a correct answer, except by random chance.
They're extremely good at giving what looks like a correct answer, and convincing their users that it's correct, though.
When LLMs are the only option, people won't go elsewhere to look for answers, regardless of how nonsensical or incorrect they are, because the answers will look correct, and we'll have no way of checking them for correctness.
People will get hurt, of course. And die. (But we won't hear about it, because the LLM's won't talk about it.) And civilization will enter a truly dark age of mindless ignorance.
But that doesn't matter, because the company will have already got their money, and the line will go up.
Exactly. Sometimes the thing that looks right IS right, and sometimes it's not. The stochastic parrot doesn't know the difference
The problem is that the LLMs have stolen all that information, repackaged it in ways that are subtly (or blatantly) false or misleading, and then hidden the real information behind a wall of search results that are entire domains of ai trash. It's very difficult to even locate the original sources or forums anymore.
I've even tried to use Gemini to find a particular YouTube video that matches specific criteria. Unsurprisingly, it gave me a bunch of videos, none of which were even close to what I'm looking for.
That’s true. There could be a balance of sorts. Who knows. If LLMs become increasingly useful, people start using them more. As they loose training data, quality goes down, and people shift back to forums etc. Could work that way too.
