People are confidently incorrect all the time. It is very likely that people will make up plausible sounding answers on StackOverflow.

You and I have both taken time out of our days to write plausible sounding answers that are essentially opposing hallucinations.





Sites like stackoverflow are inherently peer-reviewed, though; they've got a crowdsourced voting system and comments that accumulate over time. People test the ideas in question.

This whole "people are just as incorrect as LLMs" is a poor argument, because it compares the single human and the single LLM response in a vacuum. When you put enough humans together on the internet you usually get a more meaningful result.
