      Chatgpt is in no way shape or form a reliable source of information. The Information provided may be out of date, out of context, or even wildly wrong and you have no way to verify this unless you do the research yourself.

      All our current parodies of actual AI are able to do is be very convincing that what they say is true. They don’t know if it’s true, nor are they able to figure that out. They don’t care either. They are just chatbots with bells and whistles.

      Do not use them as sources of information, if anything have them give you an answer that you can then use as a starting point to verify their truthfulness.

      According to my hairdresser, chatgpt is not a reliable source of information.

      As much as I am a ChatGPT fan, you cannot trust it when it comes down to factual data unless you’re using a custom model with a specific knowledgebase.

      I think a lot of basic obscure facts like this are likely to be inaccurate from ChatGPT if its difficult to find it from a basic search engine.

      Who knows what random source it is viewing as the “truth” and spitting back out to people.

      This is so hard to read, I’m assuming you’re 6 years-old. Or an AI, the end result is the same…
