MODERATORS
Even from source documents fed to notebooklm, it has been confidently giving me wrong advice back to back. These non deterministic tools can be useful but can also be dangerous for our work.
You have been accepting its results as "confident" when you really should be verifying them independently.
Many things in this universe are NP hard - no way to solve without slogging through every possibility, but relatively easy to check once you have the answer.
People aren't right 100% of the time. LLMs trained on peoples' writings (often rando people on the internet) are also not right 100% of the time. You should verify anything you get from either source - it's much easier to verify than to do the basic research yourself.
The most useful thing I have found for non deterministic tools to do? Have them create deterministic tools for me.
