Good for you. The only two times I decided to glance at the AI overview of a search cause I wasn't finding anything, it wasn't useful at all. So yeah, I'm gonna save the planet a little more.
I still don’t understand where people are findign these useful AI answers. Every single time I try it seems AI is an acronym for artificial idiocy and I wouldn’t even trust it to tell me the time.
(In fact I just resently tried asking that stupid meta AI in sand-boxed Whatsapp (I still have to keep because of some stubborn examples of humanity) about the time in another time zone… It could tell my local time, in which time zone I was, what timezone I was asking about and what the difference between those zones was. Yet it could somehow not answer the question directly before being led there step by step. And then it still did the math wrong… 🤬)

I use LMMs daily, but I never even had the idea to use the stupid AI button in WhatsApp. And I had a buddy mentioning last week how hilarious bad the google search AI is.
You’re here in selfhosted. Do a minimum of research, fire up opencode and create an agents.md with something like „Never guess, if you don’t know something do an online search first!“. This will get rid of 99 percent of hallucinations. Then just use one of the free models opencode provides.
