| > LLMs have a different failure mode than professionals That actually supports the use-case of collaboration, since the weaknesses of both humans and LLMs would potentially cancel each other out. |

| Homeopathy is a good example. For an uneducated person it sounds convincing enough and yes, there are doctors prescribing homeopathic pills. I am still fascinated it still exists. |

| A LLM (or doctor) recommending that I take a rock can't hurt me. Screwing up in more reasonable sounding ways is much more dangerous. |

| ▲ | zdragnar 4 days ago | parent [-] | | Actually, swallowing a rock will almost certainly cause problems. Telling your state medical board that your doctor told you to take a rock will have a wildly different outcome than telling a judge that you swallowed one because ChatGPT told you to do so. Unless the judge has you examined and found to be incompetent, they're most likely to just tell you that you're an idiot and throw out the case. | | |
