Despite all the anthropomorphizing of LLMs, you must have come across already how each has VERY DISTINCT failure modes?

Actually… no. Now that you mention it, and thanks for the interesting thought, the failure modes seem pretty similar to me.

Shoddy research / hallucination, tendency to lose the thread, lack of historical / background context… the failure modes are at least qualitatively similar.

Show me an LLM failure and I’ll show you a high profile journalist busted for the same thing. And those are humans who focus on these things!
