Problem is, LLMs are amazing the vast majority of the time. Especially if you're asking about something you're not educated or experienced with.

Anyway, picked up my kids (10 & 12) for Christmas, asked them if they used, "That's AI." to call something bullshit. Yep!

That's the biggest problem for me. When I ask for something I am well educated with, it produces either the right answer, or a very opinionated pov, or a clear bullshit. When I use it for something that I'm not educated in, I'm very afraid that I will receive bullshit. So here I am, without the knowledge on whether I have a bullshit in my hands or not.

Don't you see the problem with that logic?
