I once gave a 10-dollar bill to a young man serving at the cashier at a store, and he gave me 14 dollars back as a change. I pointed out that this made no sense. He bent down, looked closer at the screen of his machine, and said "Nope, 14 dollars, no mistake". I asked him if he thought I gave him 20. He said no, and even shown me the 10-dollar bill I just gave him. At that point I just gave up and took the money.
Now that I think about it, there was an eerie similarity between this conversation and some of the dialogues I had with LLMs...
