but to dismiss their utility completely is just idiotic.

not what I said at all. I simply stated AI answers cannot be trusted without verifying them which makes them a lot less useful

You're moving the goalposts. You said you need nuance in how to measure a shirt size, you're arguing just to argue.

If a model ever starts answering these curiosities inaccurately, it would be an insufficient model for that task and wouldn't be used for it. You would immediately notice this is a bad model when it tells you to measure your neck to get a sleeve length.

Am I making sense? If the model starts giving people bad answers, people will notice when reality hits them in the face.

So I'm making the assertion that many models today are already sufficient for accurately answering daily curiosities about modern life.
