I am curious if LLMs evangelists understand how off-putting it is when they knee-jerk rationalize how badly these tools are performing. It makes it seem like it isn't about technological capabilities: it is about a religious belief that "competence" is too much to ask of either them or their software tools.

I'm curious if LLM skeptics bother to click through and read the details on a study like this, or if they just reflexively upvote it because it confirms their priors.

This is a hit piece by a media brand that's either feeling threatened or is just incompetent. Or both.

Whether a hitpiece or not, it rhymes with my experience and provides receipts. Can you provide yours?
