ChatGPT 5's PHd level intelligence is breathtaking \s
(lemmy.world)
I saw this on reddit, thinking it’s a joke, but it’s not. GPT 5 mini (and maybe sometimes 5) gives this answer. You can check it yourself, or see somebody else’s similar conversation here: https://chatgpt.com/share/689a4f6f-18a4-8013-bc2e-84d11c763a99
This is the fundamental problem with LLMs and all the hype.
People with technology experience can understand the limitations of the tech, and will be more skeptical of the output from them.
But your average person?
If they go to Google and ask if vaccines cause autism, and the Google's AI search slop trough contains an answer they like, accurate or not there will be exactly no second guessing. I mean, this is supposed to be a PhD level person, and it was right about the other softball questions they asked, like what color is the sky. Surely they're right about that too, right?
Yeah. The average person just doesn't have a good intuition about AI, at least not yet. Maybe in a few years people will be burned by it and they'll start to grok its limits, but idk. I still blame the AI companies here.
Teehee
that was unintentional
