Where are the ad campaigns telling me to trust LLMs?
I don’t use an adblocker, do read traditional dead tree newspapers and do get exposed to satellite tv channels.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone anywhere telling me how reliable LLMs are.
Pretty sure this tech sells itself to consumers, enterprise sales are what they’ve always been.

Still, it's a tool.
Even if your tool learns to talk and to make decisions, it's still a tool, not a person. You're the person and the one responsible for the decisions you make based on your tools.
Going back from the analogy, the problem is that we conflated software <engineers> with "coders". A lot of people thought their job was to create code, we gave them a tool to generate a lot of code fast, and they truly think that "more code" = "more good"
