This whole website's raison d'être was to provide neutral and accurate information about German immigration.

> as long as information gets out there

A possibly incorrect summary of the information gets out there. Given how much nuance I weave into my content, and how much effort I put into getting the phrasing just right, it frustrates me to no end. There's a very high likelihood that AI could give someone an invalid answer _and_ put my name under it, surrounded by their ads.



And ChatGPT 4o (at least the paid version) and the AI overview in Google both give real time links to sources. Well at least you can ask the paid version of ChatGPT to give you sources and it will do a web search


I use Perplexity and it routinely confabulates while linking to the source it confabulates from. Parent has a valid gripe that AI is essentially damaging their reputation by pretending to cite its information with a credible source, I wish there were some legal avenue to sue but it's not quite libel is it?


And you have the source as proof. But that says a lot about Perplexity.

Does Perplexity actually give you a clickable link like ChatGPT does?


It gives you clickable links to a half dozen or so sources. It's not clear which of the information comes from source 1 vs source 2, etc.


And it’s too much to verify the sources? When you use Google and search for something do you not have to go to multiple sources?
