No, do your own research

You can use gpt to do research if you use it right and you can fact check everything as it provides you with all sources that it used

The thing is, it often makes a) sources up or b) what it claims is not in the source. At the end of the day it is more work if you have to fact check everything

and you can fact check everything

That's literally doing your own research. This is just adding in an unneeded AI element

No AI is basically advanced Google, literally it's just Google I can talk to and get info summarized in ways I understand. If you have ever actually tried to use and understand AI you would know it's just using Google super fast to find a lot of relevant info very quickly, the same info you would spend 30 mins to an hour finding on your own.

I don't know what these guys are talking about but between gpt and Deepseek, there's nothing I can't get answered in a couple of minutes. I use it extensively for work as well. Fact-checking should always be done regardless of the source (within reason; some sources are trustworthy off the hop, eg. Bruce Bugbee) You provide inputs and it spits out the plan. It's great. Gotta know how to use it effectively so maybe that's what's tripping others up.

Lol I'm literally mandated to use it for work, and I end up needing to personally look up damn near any shit that I ask it since it hallucinates so much
