A human being informed of a mistake will usually be able to resolve it and learn something in the process, whereas an LLM is more likely to spiral into nonsense
But yes, as an edge case handler humans still have an edge.
It's not obvious to me that they're better at admitting their mistakes. Part of being good at admitting mistakes is recognizing when you haven't made one. That humans tend to lean too far in that direction shouldn't suggest that the right amount of that behavior is... less than zero.
they feed an internet data into that shit, they basically "told" LLM to behave because surprise surprise, human sometimes can be more nasty
