I have two friends that work in tech, and I keep trying to tell them this. And they use it solely now: it’s both their google, and their research tool. I admit, at first I found it useful, until it kept being wrong. Either it doesn’t know the better/best way to do something that is common knowledge to a 15 year tech, while confidently presenting mediocre or incorrect steps. Or it makes up steps, menus, or dialog boxes that have never existed, or are from another system.

I only trust it for writing pattern tasks: example, take this stream of conscious writing and structure it by X. But for information. Unless I’m manually feeding it attachments to find patterns in my good data— no way.
