There was an article I read somewhere (maybe the Guardian magazine) about how the biggest change in the last year is that LLMs no longer say they don't know - they'll confidently give you an answer that they're not really sure about.

I was out with some Computing people last week. Two of them are no longer teachers - one does something with AI. He said he uses AI all the time and can spend £200-300 per day on tokens. When I said that I never use it, he said "I probably wouldn't use it if I had a proper job, like teaching."
