Idk most people I know don't see it as a magic crystal ball that's expected to answer all questions perfectly. I'm sure people like that exist, but for the most part I think people understand that these LLMs are flawed. However, I know a lot of people who use them for everyday tasks like grammar checks, drafting emails/documents, brainstorming, basic analysis, and so on. They're pretty good at these sort of things because that's what they're built for. The issue of privacy and greed remain, and I think some of the issues will at least be partially solved if they were designed with privacy in mind.
