In my experience LLM's hallucinate a lot . Often giving "plausible but entirely wrong" output that is hard to discern from factual, real output.

About one decently exploitable bug a year or so over the past few years. Not all of them have been memory safety issues, but many have been.

So in Ireland, supermarket meat is cheap, but usually higher in fat and "wetter". Still decent meat, but you are paying for water IME. At the butcher I pay only slightly more, I know exactly which farm it came from, I know where i
