one of the main issues with language models is making stuff up. allowing ChatGPT to use a web browser to research isn't a full solution to this problem but having citations and access to up-to-date info makes it easier to fact-check replies

We even saw an instance of "prompt injection" where a malware author added a comment to convince the reader (human or AI) that their code was not malware. And... 🤖 Socket AI: "While the author claims it is for bug bounty purposes, this behavior can still pose a privacy risk."
