I asked an LLM (Gemini) about a calculated field in my taxes that was wrong but I couldn’t figure out why and every time it tried to tell me something like “It’s a common glitch for tax software to calculate like this.”

When I did figure out what was wrong and asked if that made sense, it told me I was absolutely right though.

I think people are lucky the IRS fired all their employees this day and age so this work isn’t getting checked as much.

You're being deprived of government services and a sustainable economy because the wealthy are allowed to game the system they've rigged for themselves. I wouldn't call that luck.

Gemini is a pretty bad choice for an LLM. Most people using it are doing so because Google bundled it for free with a couple things, not for its quality.

Serious question: to figure out the answer why did you not go to the IRS website for that field? This is how I ultimately answer any tax questions I have.
