Only an idiot would take a response generated by an LLM as gospel. Do we have to worry about idiots on the internet now?

Yes, same way we need to worry about people being fooled into sending tons of gift cards to scammers or letting scammers install trojans on their computer. There is a slice of the pie that is personal responsibility, but there is a larger piece where efforts can be made to prevent these problems by the developers or OEMs.

Since before telegram even meant a paper ticker, yes.

Way before, in fact. People have been taking the gospel as gospel since they were written.
