>It isn't a 0 or a 1; it is a spectrum. Doctors don't understand everything, either,

It's not equivalent. Doctors are aware of the limits of their knowledge and the error bars around their knowledge. You and an LLM don't. There is no comparison here. It's like trying to compare a random person lost in a person versus someone lost in a forest who is used to it.

Even with an LLM, you still have to be able to ask the right questions and be able to push back where necessary. I don't think most people are able to do this especially when some of the responses which might be right are counterintuitive to them and some of the dodgy responses might seem more aligned to their worldviews.

If you want to learn, it is fine (knowing that there is a context there you likely are missing) but performing actions based on knowledge you don't have context of is dangerous. It applies to vibe coding as much as it does to your personal health. This is how you end up injecting yourself with blood from younger people believing it will make you immortal.

100% agree with you. That is why I said a spectrum :)

The point is, it is an amazing tool that has made a big impact on my family. But ya, that is why my post talked about the importance of critical thinking, checking with experts, etc. It isn't a button click solution.
