How is an LLM going to be able to decide which crackpot theories are crackpot theories and which are true? So, yeah, I think it will be hard.
That's exactly what science is all about – verifiability versus guesses and crackpot misconceptions. I've not looked into it deeply, but Perplexity's responses to my queries have included footnotes that cited respected sources across the millennia. While I might weight one or another of these 'experts' by popular consensus differently, I've yet to see any sourced from idiotic social media kooks.
