What’s the point of getting the wrong answer quickly?
replyWell, we’re just going in circles now. I just said LLMs cite what they find so it’s not going to be the wrong answer if you do your due diligence.
replyMissing entries don’t get corrected by looking at the LLM output. That only helps when the LLM makes something up from thin air or mangles the output.
replyOf course it’s not the kind of question you can get an objectively correct answer for, but you could come up with the correct answer for a given methodology.
Do extra work in step 2 because you got lazy in step 1 is not my idea of efficient or complete.
replyIt’s a long way from got lazy to didn’t write their own Internet scraper to scan for books, author’s age and opinions.
replythat depends how much more quickly and efficiently you can do the extra work in step 2 than in step 1.
replyIn this case it’s strictly less efficient.
replyYou can only correct for missing entries by doing the same work you’d need to start from scratch. But after that you now have a second list to consider.
