    Then why not train an AI on the entirety of Wikipedia? I know it’s not all correct, but that should ensure most of the information is decently accurate. Would make for a great tool if it allowed to get the same info but explained in a more casual manner.

      The problem is that a generative AI does not generate correct content, it generates associated content. It looks at words/term/tokens that are frequently used together to generate a context, and will extrapolate on that, continuing to provide content that looks the teaching content.

      The problem is that this will generate materials that LOOKS LIKE CORRECT material, but it doesn’t generate material that IS CORRECT. Thankfully for AI, those things overlap a lot, but they don’t always.
