Dear all!

As I am quite new to all this, maybe a very noob question. I prompted bing, bard and chatgpt (3.5) with the same question. Bing just straight up answered different questions but delivered sources I could check. Bard and chatgpt answered my questions but just invented (all) sources. Just made up randomised authors and title names. Bard delivered links to said scientific articles, but when you followed the link the articles in question were completely different.

  1. How can you I trust delivered results, when the sources are made up?

  2. And also: why? Why didn’t it say for example there are no meta-analyses?

  3. is it better in the payed version from chatgpt?

Thanks in advance!

    Perplexity.ai has always provided sources and even has filters you can select by clicking the focus button. I dig it for academics as there’s an academic filter plus all sources provided I trust such as PubMed, NIH, SemanticScholar, and NCBI. I also really dig there no account needed, unless you want to implement GPT-4. At times I’ve had to ask for additional details on the answer provided without GPT, but up to this point its still by far my favorite AI to utilize.
