I see increasing number of cases where people say "I asked an LLM to explain this to me". Whenever they're about a topic I actually know about, I see errors. I have stopped engaging in those discussions.
If you want to understand something, I'm usually happy to share what I know. I will not, however, spend time and effort to first disentangle what a machine has produced.
