    Astra user reports unrelated criticisms during a fact-check

    The user's example contrasts a specific claim about data centers not adding water pollution in one place with a general warning that water pollution can still be a problem.

    TLDR

    After asking Astra to fact-check something they'd written, a user complained that it produced "kind of fake unrelated criticisms." They illustrated the mismatch with feedback about water pollution being a problem in general, rather than addressing whether data centers had added pollution in a particular place. The user described this as a problem with large language models broadly, not just Astra.

    @AndyMasleyHad Astra fact check something I'd written and it still does the same thing all LLMs do where it comes up with a lot of kind of fake unrelated criticisms, like "You claim data centers didn't add water pollution here, but actually water pollution can definitely still be a problem in general"
    @DanielleFongRT @AndyMasley: Had Astra fact check something I'd written and it still does the same thing all LLMs do where it comes up with a lot of kin…
    @chrisalbonOne of the problems of using LLMs helping with original work is that they are burdened with the common wisdom of the past
