People are far overconfident online for what they know. The definitive and confident tone most online commenters speak in should probably only be spoken by experts in their own fields.

I sometimes wonder if that is why LLMs can so confidently hallucinate — because they were trained on piles of overconfident human texts.

It's an interesting thing to ponder.
