Ignore the note on the page you are using that says info might not be accurate. Blame the chat bot for your unprofessional ineptitude.

I'm sorry, but WTF?! If the page on a government website "might not be accurate" then what fucking use is said website in the first place?

Chatgpt website*

That statement is more of an echo of previous similar articles.

Anyone who uses the api or similar bots for their site, such as this one, should be responsible to do the same. If they are using the api/bot without similar warning, they also don't understand basic use of the technology. It's a failure on the human side more that the bot side, but that is not how it tends to be framed

My point is that it doesn't matter how good the tools are if people just assume what they are capable of.

It's like seeing a bridge that says "600 pound weight limit". And deciding it can handle a couple tons just because you saw another bridge hold that much.

Imagine if this situation lead to a bunch of people angry at bridges for being so useless.
