Yep. I think a default state of skepticism is an absolute necessity when working with these tools.

I love LLMs. I agree with OP them expanding my hobby capacity as well. But I am constantly saying (in effect) “you sure…?” and tend to have a pretty good bs meter.

I’m still working to get my partner to that stage. They’re a little too happy to accept an answer without pushback or skepticism.

I think being ‘eager to accept an answer’ is the default mode of most people anyway. These tools are likely enabling faster disinformation consumption for the unaware.
