You're right, it's just mostly garbage output. I eventually get to a moderately usable answer a lot of the time, but more often than not I have to constantly tweak the prompt or tell it to follow the goddamned system prompts I give it, and it still feeds me obvious bullshit on 1/4-1/2 of the responses.
Maybe you're working in a common area where the AI doesn't have to work hard to give you good outputs, but the AI is trash for the tasks I give it.
