I saw this on reddit, thinking it’s a joke, but it’s not. GPT 5 mini (and maybe sometimes 5) gives this answer. You can check it yourself, or see somebody else’s similar conversation here: https://chatgpt.com/share/689a4f6f-18a4-8013-bc2e-84d11c763a99

Then it should not be used for getting the news?

    It shouldn't be used for news, or historical facts, or scientific facts, or basically anything important, because it is trained on whatever crap is out there and if it doesn't have something already then it goes to a web search that is filled with AI slop.

    LLMs are worthless for everything that they are being sold as useful for.

    Yep. It's like 90% forum nonsense. Not that there aren't valuable opinions or experts in forums, but it's much easier for me to look at a conversation as a whole there and make judgements based on that rather than just getting "This is the most said thing on Reddit about this topic".

    A buddy of mine was attempting to use it to organize (not add to, not build) his music studio. It kept suggesting he get better room treatment. He didn't have it listed because he was only trying to organize his gear. It predicted that because in every studio forum the advice consensus is to spend money on better room treatment before getting a new preamp or whatever. Then it would ask things like "Would you like me to outline how a ribbon mic would help on guitar cabinets?"

    He eventually just built his own spreadsheet.

    True but LLMs genuinely are useful when you want random things like fiction, roleplay, etc.

    As long as you don't care about consistency, maybe...

    (I mean, since they can't learn without retraining the whole model, if you're writing anything of any significant length you'd basically need to refeed them the whole context and backstory so far every prompt, which I assume would eventually hit some prompt size limit...)
