I started using it this week on subjects I'm familiar with trying to prompt it into a correct answer. My experience the first 8 messages are completely false 99% of the time and even after that it's like 80% bullshit. My favorites is when I'm asking for a link to a topic and it gives me a good enough synopsis of the topic, but can't for the life of me provide a link that's relevant.
