A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was asking it about growing stuff and it told me to plant seeds for a plant that is sterile and has to be propagated by taking cuttings. So I decided to disregard all information it told me on caring for plants because fuck knows it just made it up. Who knows how much is accurate?
Even worse is a lot of websites are AI generated now too.
The ai generated websites are the absolute worst if you want information, and at this point, they are everywhere.
Sadly SEO seems to be one thing that the LLMs are moderately good at. That or they just churn out so much crap that it floods results with some being good enough to get to the top.
