I used ChatGPT on something and got a response sourced from Reddit. I told it I’d be more likely to believe the answer if it told me it had simply made up the answer. It then provided better references.
I don’t remember what it was but it was definitely something that would be answered by an expert on Reddit, but would also be answered by idiots on Reddit and I didn’t want to take chances.
