Generative AI, at its core, produces responses to a prompt based on a correlation matrix of words (technically fragments called tokens) that accompany each other in a development data set.

Gen AI doesn’t generate knowledge.

AI not only generates opposition answers depending on the program but it sometimes gives very incorrect process data.

Not to get technical but I was getting poor results with an AI generated protocol. I changed it to reflect my empirical knowledge and the process worked just fine.

“Gen AI doesn’t generate knowledge.”

Correct. Per Information Theory computer algorithms cannot generate new information.

"Gen AI doesn’t generate knowledge."

Ditto. It may generate 90% of the Internet's content, but LLM tech is going to generate zero "knowledge" IMHO.

And if they'll lie about this, what will they not lie about?
