For one thing, getting such things wrong is very frequently cited by LLM detractors as a major drawback of trusting them, even a little bit. If it's possible to reduce the "accidentally tells you false information" occurrence from "so frequent that people expect it" to "a total rarity" then for one thing, it would signal to many people that maybe when looking for simple answers, using something not called Google is a better use of their time. This would be very, very important to basically every big company out there (especially MS, Google, and OpenAI). Today I know asking Siri is an idiotic way to get an answer because it's slow and barely even understands the query itself. An LLM is already great by comparison at both of those metrics, and if it's good at being accurate in response, it's very intriguing.
