I think what the world really needed right now was an LLM making up fake statistics, presented in a convincing high quality way. There is just no way this could ever be a problem. Surely everybody knows that if presented with some data they need to do a deep dive into the actual sources instead of blindly trusting a graph. I seriously want to know what was going on in the mind of the person who made this.
Where do the numbers come from?
'daily unique visitors to openai.com by month since 2022 to 2024'
It gave a graph with 1) time axis decreasing left to right, 2) visitor numbers which can't be real (near prefect linear trend) 3) points in the future, going out to Dec 31, 2024.

This is pretty cool, it's snappy, it seems to work, but there's no way I trust it without a way to check the LLM's work.
I think we've (https://www.definite.app/) done a decent job here. Once the LLM generates results, you can inspect the query all the way back to the source (SQL).

I still have a faint hope that proliferation of AI generated content will make it all so absurd that people will turn back to traditional editorially reviewed content. But I know that's probably too naive - I recently had someone bring up "here's what Chatgpt told me" as an argument in a discussion, in manner like Wikipedia was quoted before

I had to press the “refine” button several times which turned the query into “Bitcoin price 1900-2300”
The result was a bar chart with five data points.
All of the five data points were labeled “2K”, and had differing heights.
The dates along the X axis were in a short span of time – just a few days – and were seemingly randomly ordered. Or like, sorted with even dates in descending order followed by odd dates in ascending order. Very.. peculiar.

Also the link copy button is not working for me in Safari on iOS, and the url doesn’t change from the op link either, so I can’t share a link to the graph.
