I had an argument with Generative AI this afternoon. I asked for a quick way to pull Cloud IMDS data for consumption/cost purposes. It churned out some buggy code and I immediately asked it to debug its code because I could tell it was faulty, it replied that there was nothing incorrect. A half hour later I am asking it to show which documents it's grounding its answers in, provide its source with links, and it does. But the links don't contain any related information. I then inform it that it is wrong and if it insists that it is correct, it needs to provide a screenshot of the documents it is citing, which it did not. Then I asked it to cite which page of the documentation it is grounding its answer in and link it for me. Fucking asshole lied and made up a bunch of nonsense, then sent me a link.
It was like getting into an argument on Surly demanding a source and then telling the poster they were a moron and lacked reading comprehension. Jesus, what a waste of time. I ended up correcting its output on my own after telling it their mom was a whore.
