Where Grok Gets It Wrong
Live sources can be rumors: recency is not truth. Niche technical details, citations and arithmetic need independent checks. Funny tone does not equal certainty; ask for confidence and sources on anything consequential.
Verify Before You Trust
Open primary sources for numbers you will publish. Re-run code and formulas yourself. For medical, legal or financial decisions, Grok is a research assistant, never the decision-maker.
