LLMs are nondeterministic, so it’s impossible to make something 100% reproducible. Even if it has an issue, it might do it in a different way. If it’s well publicized, they’ll patch that very specific example, but the foundational issue is still there (like counting the R’s in strawberry).

I still regularly run into the issue where it just makes up API endpoints, CLI commands, or add flags that simply don’t exist.

I also regularly ask it things and it gives me a bad answers, so I push back, and it says something to the effect of “you’re right, I didn’t consider that, let me look at that more”… then tells me the exact opposite of the previous response.

Or it “thing X has never happened”, and I ask what about <insert example>, and it goes to look it up and says, “oh, thing X actually did happen.”

I run into this daily. Multiple times per day. How can I trust a system like this? Are people just blindly accepting what the LLM says as truth? Is that why people think it’s good?
