        And even if it’s showing the correct number, you can’t be sure how trustworthy the source is.

        At least it’s citing sources and you can check to make sure. And from my anecdotal evidence it has been pretty good so far. It also told me on some occasions that the queried information was not found in it’s sources instead of just making something up. But it’s not perfect for sure, it’s always better to do manual research but for a first impression and to find some entry points I’ve found it useful so far

          The problem is that you need to check those sources today make sure it’s not just making up bullshit and at that point you didn’t gain anything from the genai

            As I said the links provide some entry points for further research. It’s providing some use to me because I don’t need to check every search result. But to each their own and I understand the general scepticism of generative “AI”

              The sources are the same result of the search? Or at least the top results?

              If you don’t check everyone source. It might be just bullshitting you. There’s people who followed your approach and got into hot shots with their bosses and judges

          When I query an AI I always end with “provide sources and bibliography for your reply”. That seems to get better replies.
