Hi guys, I recently installed Linux mint and like any other noob I had a lot of questions and problems right of the bat and I found that ChatGPT surprisingly gets most of them right on and I yet to see a totally wrong answer from it so yeah if you are on the fence about Linux give it a try but try to verify the answers you get it not gonna be 100% accurate.

I’m not saying that you’re wrong, but I will say that more often than not I only found forum posts from 2014 when trying to deal with an issue. Not exactly fresh, either.

If you're finding only posts from 2014 I'd almost bet my life that you are finding "solutions" to the wrong problem. But at least you can see that its a 2014 fourm post and make the decision to ignore it. With chatgpt you never know where its sourcing its info.
