Easy points to start with. Generally, keeping a neutral view on something new, and striving to maintain a trust but verify attitude is your absolute best bet. The more you understand global politics, especially current agendas of various nations, political groups, etc. can help to discern one bias or another. In general, giving yourself room and time to properly process any information you encounter, and especially destress yourself, makes a huge difference.

I once had a conversation about economics with a different person. Just something clicked in some other guy and sent them down a spiral.

Nope, language models by inherent nature, xannot be used to calculate. Sure theoretically you could have input parsed, with proper training, to find specific variables, input those to a database and have that data mathematically transformed back into language data.

No LLMs do actual math, they only produce the most likely output to a given input based on trained data. If I input: What is 1 plus 1?

Then given the model, most likely has trained repetition on an answer to follow that being 1 + 1 = 2, that will be the output. If it was trained on data that was 1 + 1 = 5, then that would be the output.

Pick pretty much any forum.

I actually help train for combating disinformation and the such, I could forward you a few docs if you're interested in the read.

Use your words bro just talk.

Writing takes a HELL of a long time to start getting good, usually a million words or so, and that's not guaranteed success. Physics, as others have mentioned takes mathematics to a high level, have you looked at other aspects of sciences and math if you at least enjoy it?

If you'd like to get some career guidance, I do alot of training and mentorship pro-bono, drop me a message might be able to help a little.
