More data fixes that flaw, not less.

Not too long ago, ChatGPT didn't know what year it is. You're telling me it needs more data than it already has to figure out the current year? I like AI for certain things (mostly some programming/scripting stuff) but you definitely don't need it to read the news.

Yes. The LLM doesn't know what year it currently is, it needs to get that info from a service and then answer.

It's a Large Language Model. Not an actual sentient being.

That's a fucking lame excuse. AI is not reliable, and you definitely shouldn't use it to get your news.

It's not an excuse, relax, it's just how it works and I don't see where I'm endorsing it to get your news.

It is not "a flaw", it is the way language learning models work. They try to replicate how humans write by guessing based on a language model. It has no knowledge of what is a fact or not, and that is why using LLMs to do research or use them as a search engine is both stupid and dangerous

It's not more data, the underlying architecture isn't designed for handling facts
