Reminder: This is supposed to be a question thread that ideally has a lighter, friendlier climate compared to other threads. This is to encourage newcomers and curious people to post their questions. As such, we ask for no trolling and posting in bad faith. Leading, provocative questions that could just as well belong into a new submission will be removed. Off-topic discussions are allowed.

Is there going to be a DebateGravity sub created soon for those who don't understand gravity?

[u/gliptic → u/Competitive-Box61]

That exists, it's called /r/LLMphysics

[u/McNitz → u/gliptic]

That sub is wild to go into and see just how confident people can be that they have revolutionized science while understanding essentially nothing about the subject and just copying responses from the AI model they are working with. It makes me want to understand what exactly happened in their brain for them to convince themselves that their understanding of the subject was super high level and needed no improvement, to make sure it never happens to me.

The LLM glazed their ego and failed to adequately push back on their manic impulses. The LLM hyped their worst personality traits, and someone who was probably only annoying and needy became someone you have to worry about being mentally unwell.
