> It might seem absurd to you to even suggest superhuman AIs could function as a truth-oracle (it certainly does to me), but there are two reasons to take it seriously. First, it is how these things will be used practically by the vast majority of people. They are already replacing standard Google search results, and I’ve had many discussions end with people delegating final authority on the truth to an AI.

There are already organizations taking advantage of this, actively producing "AI propaganda", meaning propaganda aimed at the LLMs themselves in order to influence their understanding of what is truthful and bend it towards powerful actors' agendas. They're not even hiding the fact that they're doing this.
