Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

Dear all!

As I am quite new to all this, maybe a very noob question. I prompted bing, bard and chatgpt (3.5) with the same question. Bing just straight up answered different questions but delivered sources I could check. Bard and chatgpt answered my questions but just invented (all) sources. Just made up randomised authors and title names. Bard delivered links to said scientific articles, but when you followed the link the articles in question were completely different.

How can you I trust delivered results, when the sources are made up?
And also: why? Why didn't it say for example there are no meta-analyses?
is it better in the payed version from chatgpt?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks!

The thing is, people tend to take the results given as a facts. And if they have no means to check the sources (or dont bother or care) this whole ai might become a really disinformation circus.
