Interestingly enough, I've found LLMs are pretty good (for now at least) in helping determine if something is legit or not. I'm using them as a glorified search engine in such a case, but having them not only opine as to whether or not it's legit but link me to some sort of news or other official site about the thing helps.
edit: lulz, the anti-AI sentiment is so high that people downvote even the places where it's actually useful. Whatever, bros, make yourself happy. I hate AI in general, but I don't let that blind me to the few places it's actually useful. lol
