Today I'm thinking about LLMs and disinformation & how common it is for people to believe nonsense. LLMs don't have an #epistemology and I think the meat based ones don't either.
What we have is an environment that gives us feedback (e.g. visiting Myrtle Beach in August is as sensible as visiting Venus). When we have no feedback from reality, we can believe any trash & there is no mechanism to dislodge our hallucinations and lies we've been told.
