Isn’t it incredible that “AI” is sold as a product that is ‘PhD level smart’ (lol), but if it doesn’t do the straightforward thing you asked of it then it’s your fault.
They don’t provide instructions for it because they can’t provide instructions; what works on one version might not work next week. But it’s still your fault if it doesn’t do what it’s supposed to.
Maybe they mean a PhD in gaslighting. That’s all I ever get from AI search results, and worse AI SEO spam that has ruined DDG results.
Try finding out when the Walmart Car seat recycling program is this year. A dozen spam blogs will tell you it’s this April, late May, last October 2026, and ended already. Some say it’s officially announced (Walmart has no info about this years event) but never provide a link to the announcement and it’s all just hallucinated bullshit that is there because there is an info vacuum on the terms you searched.
It’s killing what was left of the moderately useful internet.

PhD level and up are notorious for over specialisation.
My university had a personal assistant, dedicated to 2 professors. Half their job was to make sure they made it to lectures on time. They still managed to be late sometimes.
As smart as the average PhD … when you ask the PhD something completely outside of their area of expertise and pressure them to make up an answer that sounds plausible, even if they don’t know the actual answer.
“You’re prompting it wrong”

Even an identical prompt to an identical model can return both good and bad results, just depending on RNG.
Have you ever tried to get a PhD to do anything?

I have tried, it’s only possible if you butter him up with cookies first, and that only had a fifty percent chance!

With the big difference that e.g. GPT isn’t on an expert level in anything.
It’s about as smart sounding as the average PhD in my experience.
