I somewhat agree with that (good for information retrieval).
I say somewhat because they will downright lie , until/unless you call them out.
You need to have an idea of whether what they are telling you is in fact true or not.
I find them very useful for programming snippets because a) I can usual grok whether what they’ve provided is what I’ve asked for and b) the proof is in the pudding (does the code do what I want?)
That is because they don't have any baked in concept of truth or lie. That would require labelling each statement as such. This doesn't scale well for petabytes of data.
