I was watching this video and at the 8:00 minute mark, they say that popcorn does not have gluten. To prove this point, they edit in a screenshot showing the first result of google for “does popcorn have gluten,” which is the ai answer. I’ve seen similar in other videos or reels and it feels forced in a way. And to me, it doesn’t prove their claim correct because it’s the ai answer.
I don’t know, I’ve just noticed this more recently and wanted to make sure I wasn’t going crazy.
And also check if the source actually says what LLM says.
I once tested Perplexity for article search and it did absolutely terrible job, citing wrong articles, sometimes hallucinating, sometimes picking info from entirely different articles I found later.
Totally. It’s the same as seeing a post on social media and just believing it 100%
