@devonzuegel's X thread examines whether LLMs appeal because answers feel available

In an Oct. 25 X thread, @devonzuegel suspects much of LLMs’ appeal lies in the feeling that answers are available, regardless of whether they are valid. The author compares that feeling to the relief of being told what to do, then clarifies that the observation is not an endorsement. They praise figuring things out for yourself and criticize letting LLMs dictate what to think.
