LLMs are perfect for smart and curious kids who ask so many questions they annoy adults like I did. Smart kids can teach themselves many things using them


If you want to produce children that endear themselves to oleaginousness and have no concept of source verification, yes.


How would kids know if what they are taught by adults is correct? The same way they would verify what LLMs say. By repeated questions to different models and checking for consistency. My parents sent me to young earth creationist schools so don't act like people are any more reliable than Opus 4.5 or Gemini 3


It seems to me that you may not have read the comment in question - it wasn't that LLMs are a good toy, it was just that LLMs are good at a particular aspect of the authors writing.
