Oh I know. 54% of American adults read below a 6th grade comprehension level.
Most of the answers you get out of them are accurate only by chance, which is why you can't really trust the info contained in what they output: if your question ended up in or near a cluster in the "educated N-space" where a good answer is, then you get a good answer, otherwise you'll get whatever is the closest "response N-space", which is practically guaranteed to be complete bollocks whilst delivered in the language of absolute certainty.
I'd go on but I'm sure the point is made.
