A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It wouldn't be a big problem if the unreliability of LLMs were part of ongoing professional development, use of LLMs without thorough fact checking was clearly barred by professional ethics, and lawyers were immediately disbarred for presenting false evidence if it came from an LLM.
It remains a "big" problem because it isn't big enough for anyone to do anything about it, beyond criticizing and ridiculing lawyers who do it.
