LLMs are pretty clear in what they do. It’s true that they are often superficial, but most of this superficiality is due to creator trying to escape liabilities. ChatGTP is often evasive or superficial on purpose, because openai is trying to find a balance between usefulness and risk of being sued.
LLMs do not try to be smart. They don’t do trick. They are built to give the best possible answer they are capable of doing (given how they are trained and built). Sometimes these answers are good, sometimes not, sometimes mixed.
Why writing a whole article trying to demonstrate frauds in a tool. Is a washing machine a fraud because it tries to convince me clothes are clean? I am satisfied by the results, given it is a machine, my aunt complains that “washing by hand” is better.
Same situation here, some people are happy, some would like more…
No it doesn’t. It doesn’t claim they’re frauds. It claims that people are seeing things in them that aren’t there and giving them abilities they don’t have. I don’t think you read it all the way through.
I did, and I believe the author is the one using psych tricks. He tries to persuade readers to see things that are not there. Similar as he claims that the LLMs are doing, he prepares the scene by creating some comparison worded in a way to make them credible. But in practice none of those comparisons are true. They appear true because the author is good with words, and leave to the reader the message that LLMs are frauds. It is a well executed rhetoric exercise, but it is still non sensical. An LLM is just a model that doesn’t try to be intelligent, it tries to answer questions or, better, to complete text
Sorry, but that article is completely non sense.

This is about how people perceive LLMs, not the LLMs themselves.
The article imply a fraud in the LLMs… Compares it to psychs
Non sense. They are just tools. One can like them or not
