Misleading title
What's misleading? They are claiming it's an opinion poll, when in reality they didn't ask humans but asked LLM agents, because they think that LLM agents will output similar things as humans.
That's literally faking an opinion poll using LLM, since most reasonable people would think that an opinion poll polls the opinion of people. (LLMs don't have opinions, that's a human concept.)
probably that it wasn't axios that actually performed the survey, they just cited it. although leaving it up is dumb, and their "clarification" just makes it dumber.
Axios didn't say what their source was until they were called out.
