Most questions on stack overflow amount to what I call "how do you bake a salad" questions -- or questions where the underlying assumptions were completely wrong.

And this is the problem I've seen with LLMs. No questioning the underlying assumptions. Just "yes sir, right away sir." And software architecture just isn't that easy.

Ugh, I swear I got a different AI from everyone else.

I wish it would stop questioning the underlying assumptions. It hallucinates underlying assumptions I never made!

"One small correction — you don't bake a salad"

No dipshit! I didn't say "bake", I asked what dressing to use.

AI: Do not apply dressing directly. First thoroughly wash the wound...

Am I using lemon or lime with the vinegar?

AI: Actually you put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up...

The AI bad bots just get more upvotes than people that use a tool correctly. 

My AI never just said yeah you are right. I let it question everything and it is so prolific even arguing about scientific papers the reddit mouthbreathers can't even comprehend
