    Agreed. I don’t use it as an encyclopedia but I have used local models for learning and to explain me some things that I didn’t understand and it’s been impressive. It’s up to you to test and evaluate how can be helpful.

      So now you still don’t understand them but now you are confidently incorrect because an LLM made up some bullshit.

      Seriously, ask it about a topic you do understand and see how wrong it is. Then realize it’s at least as wrong about everything else.

        I teach physics and math and I asked about a topic of differential geometry related to general relativity that wasn’t clear for me. I know enough of both topics to understand the answer and to acknowledge that it nailed it. You are the perfect example on how the mind of a fanatic works, without knowing if I know about what I asked and what was the answer, you dictate that it was wrong, based on pure speculation, just because it doesn’t fit your beliefs. Seriously guys, don’t be like this idiot, being so irrational can only do harm.
