I think that this is a big reason that agents aren’t prevalent as one might otherwise expect. Quality control is very important in my job (legal space, but IANAL), and I think while LLMs could do a lot of what we do, having someone whose reputation and career progression is effectively on the line is the biggest incentive to keep the work error free - that dynamic just isn’t there with LLMs.
- simonw 1y agoRight: the one thing an LLM will never be able to do is stake their credibility on the quality or accuracy of their output. I want another human to say "to the best of my knowledge this information is worth my time". Then if they waste my time I can pay them less attention in the future.
- dakshgupta 1y agoThis is a highly underrated point. It's the same reason AI might replace paralegals but won't replace lawyers.
- recursive 1y agoThey do this all the time. There's a reason we have the term "AI slop". LLM output definitely has a reputation.
