  Problem is, you cannot trust it’s not hallucinating these stats

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

      This applies to any information though, it’s got nothing to do with LLMs specifically.

        Not really, no. Sources of infornation gain a reputation as time goes on. So, even though you should still check with multiple sources, you can sort of know if a certain bit of information is likely to be correct or not.

        On the other hand, LLM’s will quote different sources and sometimes it will only provide them if you ask it to. Even then it sometimes hallucinates the sources so there’s that.

    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.

      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”

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

    That being said, I can’t trust MKBHD is not hallucinating either.
