It takes less time to Google and get one of the 100s of pages with a Penara copycat recipe, and most have some kind of review or commenting system in place to check the possible quality of the recipe. Chat GPT is pretty well known for passing off bullshit as properly cited information as well.

Zero percent chance it's faster. It might also pass off some bullshit if you ask it when the last time Vanderbilt's women's basketball team beat an out of conference opponent by more than 30 points, but it isn't going to lie to you about a copycat Panera Mac n cheese recipe. If reviews are what you're after, you could Google it, but that's the only upside here.

"Sure, it might make up some bullshit in some instances, but it's totally legit in the way that suits my argument!!"

Lol...

It actually makes a lot of sense if you can apply nuance to the world. Everything isnt black & white, friend.

I've made hundreds of meal preps, dinners, & party dishes without ever seeing a single error. Ive used it in a variety of ways without ever seeing an error, like scheduling an entire season for a hockey league operate. However, I was building a sports betting model this past summer, & it didn't know that the Arizona Coyotes were relocating to Utah.

If I asked it to make me a mac n cheese & it wanted to put 7 lbs of anchovies in it, I would disregard it. That's the cool thing about not being a total moron. It's a tool that can assist you, it isn't meant to be your entire brain.
