Well of course, the typical American will google "how do i cook chicken" and if the Google AI (or top result, if this was 10 years ago) said 'you can eat chicken raw without any issues', they would believe it to be objectively true. I think it is less about LLMs and more the fact that Americans are fucking stupid & will gladly adopt the stances of whatever a presumed 'expert' tells them about X, Y, or Z.
LLMs are just an excellent way to do this because the average American thinks there's some sort of magical omniscient gnome trapped somewhere in the internet that will give you an objectively true answer about any question you ask it. So, again, in short - the typical American is a fucking idiot.
Very funny that actual experts are usually ignored.
Chicken sashimi slander was uncalled for tbh
any slander against this abomination is definitely called for. The Japanese will be made to justify the crimes against humanity they created when they came up with torisashi
i forget the details but i remember a post recently about some dipass who ate some shit he shouldn't have because LLM and no secondary investigation.
one person replaced their consumed sodium chloride with pool salt (sodium bromine) in an effort to remove chlorine from their diet. they gave themselves brominism from listening to a LLM

yeah that's the one. completely unreasonable levels of trust in the magic box
I recall one about a couple who ate toxic mushrooms because their book on the matter had been written by AI.
that's extra fucked because you're supposed to be able to trust books more. Even then, in ye olden days i was taught not to eat wild mushrooms period and not to attempt foraging for them as an amateur.
