Toot

Written by Martijn Faassen on 2025-01-13 at 13:14

When you're a non expert and you talk to someone who gives a lot of answers to questions on a topic, and it seems plausible and coherent, you assume they are an expert.

That heuristic is decent. You may be talking to a bullshitter, scammer or crackpot the chances, but you can often filter those out using common knowledge.

But this heuristic falls flat on its face for AI. An AI can give a lot of decent, plausible answers on a topic. It fits with what you know. Yet it's very far from an expert.
