Now you need to check everything it outputs because you don't trust what is says as it hallucinates nonsense and incorrect answers. Thus, it is much worse than Google or using it as a search engine replacement.

This is what the AI hype squad doesn't tell you in the small print of their snake-oil that they are selling to you. If anything, this hype will subside just as quick as with the short-term hype that happened with Clubhouse.


Is it worse than using google or stackoverflow instead of reading the documentation? I don't use it but I see many people like it because they get 70-80% of the work for a fraction of the effort.
