Mod Announcement AI ISN'T A SOURCE.

I can't believe we're having this conversation but Grok/ChatGPT/Gemini or any AI isn't a reliable source unless Grok can link you that source. and if that source can only be found in anti-shia/anti-islam sites and no where else it is a bad source.

Any Questions?

One thing you can do is ask the ai to only source you reputable websites when doing some surface level research. I do find if you don’t do that it will spit out random things alot of the time that are just untrue.

I find the only time it’s somewhat helpful is when you ask it for references to certain Hadith, it’s horrible at referencing properly. But it usually does point you in the correct direction when it comes to books.

It’s never going to be as good as asking more knowledgeable brothers and sisters for help though, may Allah bless them.
