Couldn't I credit someone if I ask them questions during my work, even if they gave me bullshit answers based on hunches? Shouldn't I credit them if I ask them

Couldn't I credit someone if I ask them questions during my work, even if they gave me bullshit answers based on hunches? Shouldn't I credit them if I ask them a lot of questions, or if their hunches sent me down a good path? I don't see how the person being questioned being an AI changes anything in that regard. I agree it might be silly in the way that crediting a database as if it was a human might be silly, but it's a cute meme.
