    Judging or dismissing a PERSON for using tools you don’t respect = valid.

    Saying you “invalidate” content that is “properly researched and legitimately correct” = what?

    I mean most people have no idea how to “properly research” - this has been true for centuries - sloppy research is not a new phenomenon. If something was “properly researched” why would you reject it?

      As the one says above it is “Appeal to Authority” by adding Claude, or ChatrGPT for the more base level folks, from what I have seen.

      Somehow they assume that putting that in will somehow make their words more valid, but hearing it makes me question everything, and dismiss potential valid points made alongside it.

      Because we don’t see all that research, we just see a comment where you said you asked the hallucination machine, so now, if I want to use anything you said, I have to go duplicate all that research before I can trust it.

        So what you meant to say was “if you claim that you legitimately researched but you mention Claude - I will assume you did not”.

        Which is valid. But is not what you said.

          More accurately, if you claim you used Claude, I will assume absolutely anything produced with it has a high chance of being rife with errors. If you provided citations for every last detail and then said Claude put it together, I wouldn’t trust it until I’ve personally verified the sources because not only will it hallucinate details, it’ll hallucinate sources. Anything produced with it is inherently untrustworthy.

        That’s true regardless of the sources someone used.

          Yeah, but the only source explicitly provided in this hypothetical is the hallucination machine.

          Well I like to at least allude to my source if it’s not common knowledge
