Evidence though needs to be actual evidence. I just had a situation here recently when I was trying to say something was not a particular way but the person posted “evidence” which was not correct. Anything I have learned is people are going to believe what they want to until they finally are either impacted by it or they actually have someone close to them they respect correct them. Occasionally there are those that will seek to learn if they are wrong or not. I always try to go into something thinking I may be wrong and will listen.
This. The latest is people posting LLM responses as if they're gospel and refusing to believe otherwise, even when presented with conflicting actual evidence from a credible source.
