The article mentions more research is needed to confirm if the effect is long-lasting, but personally I’m happy someone may have found a good, practical usecase for LLMs.
Lol, no. Anyone who believes this have no idea what it means to believe in conspiracy theories. Trust me, it’s not that they can’t find the Wikipedia page with the official information, or can’t turn on the TV and listen to what the news says.
It’s that they have no trust in those things. Chat gpt won’t change that.
How do we keep forgetting over and over again as a society that people are spreading bigotry and conspiracy theories ON PURPOSE? We keep deluding ourselves into believing that if we just get the right tool to properly educate people then the problem will go away.
LLMs can and are being used to spread misinformation and propaganda and conspiracy theories and bigotry at least as rapidly as they can counteract it.
