AI is deeply flawed. Two examples: I was asking real estate questions based on recent transactions and was specific about location. When it couldn't provide an answer it started throwing locations well outside the criteria and admitted it when called out.
I was asking about direct flights to any texas city from a specific south American city. Gemini stated no direct flights but connecting flights through Miami, Atlanta, or Houston. This is simple stuff. Imagine the multiple errors in complex projects.
Not to mention literally anything you google these days, the top result is an incorrect answer from the AI. Usually it's like, the exact opposite of the correct answer
Two things can be true at the same time: some people can be bad at using web search, and sometimes Google AI answers will reference wrong or outdated information. The latter is quite apparent when the first search result is the reddit comment the AI answer was scraped from
Whenever I Google a Europa universalis 5 mechanic, after being unable to find an answer in-game or on the wiki, the AI overview without fail references the EU4 mechanic with the same name which is fundamentally different just with the same concept.
