Not too long ago, ChatGPT didn't know what year it is. You're telling me it needs more data than it already has to figure out the current year? I like AI for certain things (mostly some programming/scripting stuff) but you definitely don't need it to read the news.
Yes. The LLM doesn't know what year it currently is, it needs to get that info from a service and then answer.
It's a Large Language Model. Not an actual sentient being.
That's a fucking lame excuse. AI is not reliable, and you definitely shouldn't use it to get your news.
It's not an excuse, relax, it's just how it works and I don't see where I'm endorsing it to get your news.
