Ir doesn’t seem to have any real understanding of reality and it will just hallucinate answers. I literally don’t understand what the hype is about. I got lukewarm on it when it couldn’t give the right responses about Christmas traditions in Portugal and Belarus.

I'm fairly surprised Microsoft is going to try inject it into their search product for all the reasons you've cited.

I think it's all a hype right now. I feel they wouldn't enable it for most queries after a while and just have users use the chat interface. Hallucination is a major problem that hasn't been solved yet. Even with mostly accurate response, there are a lot of facts that are hallucinated, and it's difficult to trust because I have to use search to verify a lot of things.

For code, I'd prefer using something like Copilot, which is specifically trained for the task than using LLMs.
