It's not intelligent. I doesn't know anything. It cannot reason. It just

The "Mad Cow Disease" crisis of the 1980s is believed to have been due
to the practice of feeding cattle meal that contained cattle and sheep
by-products. As LLM output becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish
from human output (which is often bad enough!), I predict an outbreak of
"Mad LLM Disease".

The Google/Bing monopoly that started funded by USG projects
then morphed into a giant anarcho-capitalist tar-money-pit,
should make for a great anti-trust thrust with regards to
the many, many narratives including the common-sense,
the conventional-wisdom, and the great store of academic
output, which proper academe should reflect not re-invent.
Or, "they did not re-invent the wheel".
"A.I." has been around a long time, it's
not so hard, ..., it's so easy.
Trust-busting
Making sense of interacting with information-systems
rather requires a thorough education than being
"operationally-conditioned" to, "follow the red dot".
So, literacy tests, reading comprehension, and closed-book.
Because, that open-book is an inconstant thaumaturgist.
The Wikipedia at least seems alright, yet it
also suffers from propaganda and aggrandizement.
Herf it and start over: helps to have a library.
And academia. Of course it's established in more
civilized nations that a free public education is a right.
