    It’s hard to tell a difference between these people and Trump supporters sometimes.

    To me it feels a lot like when I was arguing against antivaxxers.

    The same pattern of linking and explaining research but having it dismissed because it doesn’t line up with their gut feelings and whatever they read when “doing their own research” guided by that very confirmation bias.

    The field is moving faster than any I’ve seen before, and even people working in it seem to be out of touch with the research side of things over the past year since GPT-4 was released.

    A lot of outstanding assumptions have been proven wrong.

    It’s a bit like the early 19th century in physics, where everyone assumed things that turned out wrong over a very short period where it all turned upside down.

      Exactly. They have very strong feelings that they are right, and won’t be moved - not by arguments, research, evidence or anything else.

      Just look at the guy telling me “they can’t reason!”. I asked whether they’d accept they are wrong if I provide a counter example, and they literally can’t say yes. Their world view won’t allow it. If I’m sure I’m right that no counter examples exist to my point, I’d gladly say “yes, a counter example would sway me”.

            Weird, works fine for me. It’s their response to the comment in this thread with this content:

            I think you might be confusing intelligence with memory. Memory is compressed knowledge, intelligence is the ability to decompress and interpret that knowledge.
