Yep. AI, such as it is, can be useful for some things. I had had a song kinda stuck in my head for years, couldn't remember the lyrics, artist, or song name - only that it was in french and done stuff from the video. ChatGPT worked it out quickly. On the other hand, I was using it to look up definitions for a legal case I'm kinda involved in that hasn't really happened before - I know I shouldn't, but I'm not a lawyer! - and I found it was using my own case which has not been decided as evidence.
So yeah, they can be impressive but you can't trust these programmes with anything important.
