Question Can LLM's theories be banned?

[COLGeek]

Note the response regarding banning LLMs. They do serve a useful purpose. Just not the one many assume in terms of accuracy.

You raise an important point, AI output does range from insightful to flawed, and distinguishing between the two is critical. But that’s precisely why engagement matters. If we’re concerned about quality, we need to evaluate content directly rather than disqualify it based solely on its origin.

Blanket dismissal makes it impossible to ever identify the ‘brilliance’ you acknowledge AI might produce. The act of scrutiny, of assessing reasoning, evidence, and internal consistency, is what separates skepticism from evasion. I'm fully open to critique of any specific claims I’ve presented, and I welcome it. But rejecting them without examination doesn’t protect standards—it prevents discourse.

Much of the conversation here appears focused on discrediting LLM-generated content rather than evaluating the ideas themselves. The thread title, “Can LLM’s theories be banned?”, reflects that tendency.

I just want to tell you, that you even talk like LLM already. My beloved phrase is A rather than B. You don't need to state firmly anything anymore. You can always give your preference rather than firm statement using A rather than B expression. I used it ironically.

I agree the source is irrelevant. Didn't the benzene ring come from a dream of a snake holding his tail? Similarly, AI can point us in a direction we can search. But we cannot use AI as a source, it cannot be quoted. There is no way to go check the source. The problem we are seeing in our forum is people using AI and not telling us. They are treating it as an original source. Can't do that.

What is generally recognizable is LLM written content. Especially on forums. They tend to stand out for their style and syntax.

Your response is a valuable addition to the rich back and forth of stimulating ideas in an open forum.

I am not really hip on all these AI methods. But have you seen the latest? AI UFO enhanced imaging---- now we can see what those alien space ships really look like.

They have AI enhanced the UFO videos now.

It leaves no doubt of their existence. For all to see. Aliens are real.

And action must be taken.

In two weeks, ha ha.

We understand AI is capable of brilliance and silliness. The problem is sorting one from the other. No one seems to be able to do that.

It is still very new. Some of us are learning those lessons. There is also a great deal of deep confusion (people dismissing it out of hand, people who make no attempt to sort good from bad...)

Indeed. And I am currently seeing that very regularly from people who are intelligent enough to know better.
