Right. People keep treating ChatGPT like Google Search, expecting to OUTPUT facts. In reality it’s actually better as a Calculator For Words.
In the same way that with a calculator, if you put bullshit in you will get bullshit out. In many cases you need to INPUT facts. This is automated with things like RAG.
I think this is why ChatGPT is extending deeply into RAG, because it matches more closely how users are expecting the tool to work.
