It’s only useful if you can trust it, and you very much cannot.

I know you can’t necessarily trust anything online, but when the first hit is from the National Pork Board, I’m confident the answer is good.

But for the OP it is not as it does not give a temperature in their preferred units and probably USDA gives the wrong temperature in their locality.
The only advantage is the automatic unit conversion, and that introduces a second point where the summary can get it wrong. If the source gives an incorrect answer then the AI summary is just going to repeat it, if you’re lucky.
Yes USDA gives the wrong value for Canadians and Britons
