Ok, but so do most humans? So few people actually have true understanding in topics. They parrot the parroting that they have been told throughout their lives. This only gets worse as you move into more technical topics. Ask someone why it is cold in winter and you will be lucky if they say it is because the days are shorter than in summer. That is the most rudimentary "correct" way to answer that question and it is still an incorrect parroting of something they have been told.
Ask yourself, what do you actually understand? How many topics could you be asked "why?" on repeatedly and actually be able to answer more than 4 or 5 times. I know I have a few. I also know what I am not able to do that with.
I feel that knowing what you don't know is the key here.
An LLM doesn't know what it doesn't know, and that's where what it spouts can be dangerous.
Of course there's a lot of actual people that applies to as well. And sadly they're often in positions of power.
There are more than a couple research agents in development
