    I don’t know where you think I implied it was ok for surface search, but it’s the exact opposite of what I wanted to say.

      There’s a large list of things LLM are known to not be reliable for: searching anything beyond surface informations

      This implies that it is reliable for “surface informations” which i disagree with, though a lot of people get sucked in that way

        If you ask any big LLM a mundane question, it’s likely to get it right. And as you put it, it’s one of the way people get sucked in. But it does work, very inefficiently, for that purpose. Saying it does not is lying to yourself.

          I disagree. A big LLM might get a mundane question right, but it might not. To call it reliable is laughable.

          What it is is confident, and if you don’t know the answer yourself, it will seem plausible.
