If it was an accounting firm doing an audit and sending you lies, then yeah you could hold them responsible. If an OTC drug had incorrect labeling and misinformed you, you'd be able to hold them responsible.

If you ask an AI a question and it replies with incorrect information... dunno. Probably would be argued that it is similar to reading a forum post of incorrect information or picking the wrong book to research a topic. Kinda on you if you're doing the research.

I don’t understand how any educated man can take a site like this seriously.

AI fanboys are the most easily impressed of all humans.

I think they're mostly just hype junkies and a few true believers. They're a lot like the crypto people. "Sure it doesn't really actually entirely work for what we want it to but SOMEDAY!"
