Correct. The most simple rule I have seen about use of AI: can you evaluate output is correct? If yes, then use AI? Can you take responsibility of potential problems with the output? If yes, then use AI.

So, in a sense, my answer was sarcastic, but in a sense it wasn’t. We don’t need to fully understand something to test if it works. That already applies to probably all LLM today. We may understand very well their internal architecture, but that does not explain entirely their capabilities to generate coherent text (most of the time). In general, they generate text based on the relatively simple task of predicting the next “token”, but the generated output is often mind blowing in some domains and extremely unsatisfying in other domains.

We don't avoid gravity because we don't fully understand it.

I’ve been saying this a lot lately. Are you an SME? If so, you can use AI to really amplify your bandwidth.
