In reality, humans are often blunt and rude pessimists who say things can't be done. But "helpful chatbot" LLM's are specifically trained not to do that for anything but crude swaths of political/social/safety alignment.

When it comes to technical details, current LLM's have a bias towards sycophancy and bullshitting that humans only show when especially desperate to impress or totally fearful.

Humans make mistakes too, but the distribution of those mistakes is wildly different and generally much easier to calibrate for and work around.
