Gotta watch your P's and Q's with this beast. I have found that it gives a mix of really reliable information and complete and utter garbage. Like I'll ask it about a protocol for doing some assay, and it'll give great instructions and pull catalog numbers for the reagents and everything. And then I'll follow up by asking if it can give me a citation for such-and-such protocol, and it will literally make up scientific paper titles and authors, and then point to a PubMed page that has fuck all to do with what I've been asking about. This has happened multiple times, so I know it's not just a fluke I ran into one time. Really fascinating actually. Conscious, it is not.
