    Just because you haven’t personally gotten an egregiously wrong answer doesn’t meant it won’t give one, which means you have to check anyway. Google’s AI famously recommended adding glue to your pizza to make the cheese more stringy. Just a couple of weeks ago I got blatantly wrong information about quitting SSRIs with its source links directly contradicting it’s confidently stated conclusion. I had to spend EXTRA time researching just to make sure I wasn’t being gaslit.

      Google’s AI is famously shitty. ChatGPT, and especially the most modern version is very good.

      Also don’t use LLMs for sensitive stuff like quitting SSRIs yet.

        That’s the thing. I didn’t want to use it. The AI’s input was entirely unsolicited and luckily I knew better than to trust it obviously. I doubt the average user is going to care enough to get a second opinion.
