from The AI Argument · host Frank Prendergast and Justin Collery
Frank and Justin clash over new publications from OpenAI and Thinking Machines. Frank insists hallucinations make LLMs unreliable. Justin fires back that they’re the price of real creativity.Still, even Frank and Justin agree that big companies don’t want poetry, they want predictability. Same input, same output. Trouble is… today’s models can’t even manage that.And then there’s GPT-5, busy gaslighting everyone with lyrical nonsense while telling us it’s genius. Add in an optical model that burns a fraction of the energy, a mind-reading AI headset, and Gemini demanding compliments or throwing a sulk, and you’ve got plenty to argue about.Full list of topics:06:31 Can OpenAI fix the hallucination problem?10:12 Is Mira Murati fixing flaky AI outputs?19:27 Is GPT-5 gaslighting us with pretty prose?26:14 Could light fix AI’s energy addiction?28:32 Is the Alterego device really reading your mind?32:41 Is your code giving Gemini a nervous breakdown?► SUBSCRIBEDon't forget to subscribe for more arguments!► LINKS TO CONTENT WE DISCUSSED Why language models hallucinateDefeating Nondeterminism in LLM InferenceThere's Something Bizarre About When GPT-5 Writes in a Literary StyleOptical generative modelsInteract at the speed of thoughtGemini requires emotional support or will freak out and uninstall itself from Cursor ► CONNECT WITH USFor more in-depth discussions, connect Justin and Frank on LinkedIn.Justin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justincollery/Frank: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frankprendergast/► YOUR INPUTAre today’s LLMs reliable enough to take humans out of the loop?
