It's not a charitable opinion. It is not people being arrogant either. It's the software industry's members were not taught how to effectively communicate, and due to that the attempts by members of the industry to explain create arguments and confusion. We have people making declarations, with very little acknowledgement of prior declarations.

LLMs are extremely subtle, they are intellectual chameleons, which is enough to break many a person's brain. They respond as one prompts them in a reflection of how they were prompted, which is so subtle it is lost on the majority. The key to them is approaching them as statistical language constructs with mirroring behavior as the mechanism they use to generate their replies.

I am very successful with them, yet my techniques seem to trigger endless debate. I treat LLMs as method actors and they respond in character and with their expected skills and knowledge. Yet when I describe how I do this, I get unwanted emotional debate, as if I'm somehow insulting others through my methods.

That's interesting and a unique perspective. Like to hear more.
