AI responses are probably less shit than they'd get from real people these days.
half the people I meet now are living in a delusion-fueled alternate reality and suffering from main character syndrome, they are utterly useless for any social or relationship advice.
and social media is 90% terrible advice pushed my influencers who are only there to stir up drama or 'work on yourself', both of which are pretty useless advice, and are just designed to get you hooked on buying shitty products they advertise.
Well, I hope and pray that no one ever trains AI on social media posts and then they regurgitate the same bullshit.

Unlike people, who tend to reject legit information outright, because it doesn't make they feel good about themselves and feelings is all they think they need.
you are confusing the possibility of AI being wrong sometimes, with the fact people are mostly wrong most of the time.
But again, it's about your feelings, because you're a person and that's what you think is the ultimately source of all truth and knowledge.
You can tell it to give sources
