QUESTION 1
1.1
One clear element is that the explanation is very general and broad. Large Language
Models usually give a general overview instead of referring to the exact legislation or
policies that are discussed in the study material. The response may explain the
importance of legislation during screening but may not mention specific South
African laws or the exact procedures required in the module.
A second element is the use of formal and structured language that sounds generic.
LLM responses often contain well organised paragraphs with common academic
phrases such as explaining importance, ensuring compliance, protecting rights and
maintaining fairness. The wording may sound correct but it often lacks specific
examples or references from the prescribed material.
A third element is the absence of module references or prescribed sources. In most
cases the text generated by an LLM does not cite the study guide, legislation, or
academic authors used in the module. This shows that the answer was produced
using general knowledge rather than the exact content required for the assignment.
1.2
The information provided by the LLM may still be partially correct because identifying
and applying legislation during the screening process is important for ensuring
fairness, protecting rights and maintaining lawful decision making. These ideas
generally align with the principles discussed in the study material.
However, the LLM response may lack accuracy in terms of detail. The study material
usually explains the specific legislation, procedures and legal responsibilities that
must be followed during the screening process. If the LLM does not mention the
correct acts, policies or procedures discussed in the module, the answer may be
incomplete or misleading.
Another limitation is that LLMs sometimes oversimplify complex legal requirements.
The study material provides a more reliable explanation because it is written by
