>While doing chores, I asked chatGPT "tell me about Genghis Khan's sons", and then follow up questions like "what was the name of the khanate or empire Ogedai founded?"

You actually trusted the information it gave you?

If I trust Wikipedia for this info, then I have no reason to distrust it.

And I’m asking about Ogedai Khan and the Ilkhanate, not my child’s health. It’s okay if I learn something wrong :D

With time you learn where it’s trustworthy and where you need to check for bullshit.
