Are you using real agents or the free chats on the web, because the latter ones are really dumb. Even when you ask them to search the web for basis you don't get much success.
I haven’t paid
edit: Well I did for grok, but not on purpose. Grok still failed too.
The bigger paid models or potentially the local ones if given access to search the web can probably get you the right answers. The big ones have pretty much memorized half the internet, but can still be wrong so pushing them to verify their answers.
But the harder part is trusting what they say regardless. I can't just take an answer for truth, and unless I can verify the statement (fact checking myself, looking up the source, running/testing the code, etc) then it gets harder to do anything with AI. This is the thing I hate about AI in general, people just take whatever they say at face value. Lawyers with fake citations, random people asking chatgpt about random facts and such. Its a tool that people put too much faith in to do thinking for them.
