morksinaanab commented on The "confident idiot" problem: Why AI needs hard rules, not vibe checks   steerlabs.substack.com/p/... · Posted by u/steer_dev

The thing that bothers me the most about LLMs is how they never seem to understand "the flow" of an actual conversation between humans. When I ask a person something, I expect them to give me a short reply which includes another question/asks for details/clarification. A conversation is thus an ongoing "dance" where the questioner and answerer gradually arrive to the same shared meaning.

LLMs don't do this. Instead, every question is immediately responded to with extreme confidence with a paragraph or more of text. I know you can minimize this by configuring the settings on your account, but to me it just highlights how it's not operating in a way remotely similar to the human-human one I mentioned above. I constantly find myself saying, "No, I meant [concept] in this way, not that way," and then getting annoyed at the robot because it's masquerading as a human.

I suspect that's because, trained on website content, seo values more text (see recipe websites). So the default response is fluff.

> 5) Uh-oh, the model is underperforming, and the human worker pipeline is now some significant part of the full workflow.

AI stands for "Actually, Indians."
