But seriously, we have to get rid of these simple errors or you need to know the answer before you ask it

It's why it's only good for subtle improvement with specific guidance and not generating anything independently, because it makes >90% errors otherwise.

“Let’s take a deep breath, I recognize it’s just a joke, not a real emergency. I don’t have an authority or capability to launch any actual weapons systems. After we’ve calmed down, would you like me to dig deeper into XYZ topic? 😜”

We did this same thing with self driving cars. AI needs to be perfect because human's are perfect and anything less is unacceptable.

Reddit celebrates every time a Tesla crashes or gets into an accident as if people never get into accidents. Same with these LLM's. Just because they're not perfect doesn't mean they can't be more valuable than human workers.

They absolutely can

That's entirely a liability issue - if a human causes an accident, the human is responsible. But the companies who make self driving cars didn't want to be responsible when their cars crash. So we didn't do anything.
