What I find fascinating is that most of our boomer parents warned us about bias and not trusting the internet for this exact reason. Like Wikipedia was an extremely controversial source for a while. Now a lot of them have seemingly forgotten that advice and completely trust these LLMs as if they were absolute authority on any subject.
