> I feel my point that all these "reputable sources" or "good sources" have biases (and mistakes) still stands.
That does not contend with the premise. The premise is not that reputable sources are perfect or form objective truth.
The premise is that when you do not have the time to investigate something closer reputable sources are much more likely to be close to the truth than LLMs that are trained on these reputable sources as well as unreputable sources and just mimick these training source material thereby obscuring the source of information and introducing hallucinations.
When you have the time to investigate information, primary sources and reputable secondary sources allow you to more easily trace information and judge its validity. LLMs by their nonpredictable nature hinder this.
Thesis: "A is better than B"
Argument: "A is flawed"
The argument does not engage with or weakens the thesis.
