  • Think about the data that the models were trained on… pretty much all of it was based on sites like Reddit and Stack Overflow.

    If you look at the conversations that occur on those sites, it is very rare for someone to ask a question and then someone else replies with “I don’t know”, or even an “I don’t know, but I think this is how you could find out”. Instead, the vast majority of replies are someone confidently stating what they believe is the truth.

    These models are just mimicking the data they’ve been trained on, and they have not really been trained to be unsure. It’s up to us as the users to not rely on an LLM as a source of truth.








  • My best friend came out when she was 34… and she almost exclusively dated women (cis or otherwise). I don’t think she would have put the label ‘lesbian’ on herself, she was more pan, but I think the important thing is she did what felt right for her and what made her happy.

    She did lose some friends, and some in her family had a very hard time learning to accept her, but she also found an amazing amount of love from the friends and family that did immediately, and without question, accepted her.

    Stay safe, take care of yourself, and remember that no matter what the small minded people say, think or do, you still have people who love you and just want you to be you, and happy.
