Even if LLMs lied 30% of the time, they would still be about as useful as they currently are for me.

When I ask for their input, it's always for a situation where I'm capable of judging if their input is useful or not.

In all situations I use them, it doesn't matter if they're correct at all. I'm asking for ideas, alternatives, links for blogs or articles. I talk things out with them...

I don't think we should ever "trust" LLMs. This seems like the wrong usecase for them.

Unfortunately the vast majority of users do trust them and the companies selling them are recommending them for tasks like accounting or business projections.
