    I’ll get hate for this but in most tasks people use them for they are pretty dang accurate. I’m talking about frontier models fyi

      Google Gemini gives me solid results, but I stick to strictly factual questions, nothing ambiguous. Got a couple of responses I thought were wrong, turns out I was wrong.

        I got a Firefox plugin to block Gemini results because whenever I look up something for my medical studies, it runs a really high chance of spitting out garbage or outright lies when I really just wanted the google result for the NIH StatPearls article on the thing.

        As a medical professional, generative AI and search adjuncts like Gemini only make my job harder.
