It’s not a lie if you believe it.

Exactly. They aren't lying, they are completing the objective. Like machines... Because that's what they are, they don't "talk" or "think". They do what you tell them to do.

I mean, it was trained to mimic human social behaviour. If you want a completely honest LLM I suppose you'd have to train it on the social behaviours of a population which is always completely honest, and I'm not personally familiar with such.
