The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

If you know something about the topic you’re searching, you won’t be surprised sometimes to find mistakes, poorly drawn statistics, or outright hallucinations included in the summary.

I'll second that. AI search is basically useless for most things I have to look for professionally. When I look for zoning information, it almost always gets the city wrong. Whatever I'm looking for, it will return the City of Miami requirements or code provisions - even though I'm usually looking for a different city. I guess it's just because more people live in the City of Miami than cities like Miami Shores, West Miami, North Miami, North Miami Beach, or Miami Beach. So AI gets the question wrong - and if you rely on it if it tells you that your setback is X or your lot coverage is Y%, you'll be badly misled.
