    Well of course, the typical American will google “how do i cook chicken” and if the Google AI (or top result, if this was 10 years ago) said ‘you can eat chicken raw without any issues’, they would believe it to be objectively true. I think it is less about LLMs and more the fact that Americans are fucking stupid & will gladly adopt the stances of whatever a presumed ‘expert’ tells them about X, Y, or Z.

    LLMs are just an excellent way to do this because the average American thinks there’s some sort of magical omniscient gnome trapped somewhere in the internet that will give you an objectively true answer about any question you ask it. So, again, in short - the typical American is a fucking idiot. monkey-typewriter
