All three below are TRUE:
1. #ChatGPT and other ChatBot AI is the hot technology rn.
2. These #LargeLanguageModels don’t know anything.
3. Humans are terrible lie detectors.
These three truthfacts make AI’s overwhelming confident "speech" a kryptonite to human thinking.
The #Dunning-KrugerEffect is a psychological tool to understand cognitive bias. It says when people learn a little about a complex topic, they are over confident in their understanding. #LargeLanguageModels present this exact behavior to audiences. Not only can LLMs like ChatGPT not fact check their replies, they also have no way of knowing what they don’t know!
On top of that, most humans don’t know how AI chatbots (like ChatGPT) work, meaning our own Dunning-Kruger bias comes into play as well. Tech like ChatGPT cannot fact check itself! Here’s what you need to know.
This Dunning-Kruger Effect is AI’s Biggest problem, and ours too.

I’ve got a BRAND NEW PODCAST called That’s Absurd Please Elaborate. In each episode, my buddy Julian Huguet and I take silly questions from the audience and answer them with serious research.
Some of my favorites:
– How long would it take to make a LEGO replica of the sun?
– What’s the pointiest thing?
– Why aren’t humans born with adult sized hands and feet?
– Where is the internet?
We release episodes every other Thursday!
