    The best part is this is as good as the AI slop will get. Knowledge, digitally anyway, via search, peaked about 2 years ago. Primary source information will still be valid digitally…unless authors incorporate slop into their work, which will take dedication and care to do.

      If they used care and dedication they could make the fancy autocomplete return factual information now.

        Only if the training set consists 100% of factual information that is internally consistent.

          They could use reliable sources to approach 100% instead of jamming literally everything in. For example, limiting the training data to peer reviewed papers would not be exactly 100% but it would be a lot closer than including all of reddit.
