Intelligence varies more than it may appear. I tend to live and work with people near my own intelligence level, and so―probably―do you. I know there's at least two tiers above me.

It is common and understandable for people to respond with a great deal of skepticism to whether LLM outputs can ever be said to reflect the will and views of the models producing them.
