Depends on the implementation.

Just about everyone I know loves how iPhones can take a picture and readily identify a plant or animal. That's actually delightful. Some AI tech is great.

Now put an LLM chatbox where people expect a search box, and see what happens... yeah that shit sucks.

As I biologist I'd like to correct your sentence: "iPhones can take a picture and pretend to sometimes manage to get close to identifying a plant"
