"Anti-Intelligence: Why LLMs Undermine Human Understanding" by Dr. Jerry A. Smith, explores the concept of large language models (LLMs) as "anti-intelligence" systems. It argues that while LLMs produce convincing and fluent outputs, they lack true understanding or grounded comprehension, operating instead on statistical prediction of text patterns. The author highlights empirical evidence suggesting that relying on LLMs can reduce human critical thinking and lead to acceptance of inaccuracies, despite the models' sophisticated performance. The article proposes the need for "cognitive integrity" approaches and human oversight to mitigate these risks and preserve genuine understanding in an age of synthetic fluency.
