      Even when it does pull numeric data, it gets very confused.

      I asked about rough price of something and of course the AI summary came back and said something like:

      It typically costs 400-500 but could cost up to $200 in extreme circumstances, with 750 being the average

      Basically did get three figures from three different internet results and combined them into a single sentence in a nonsense way.

      At least in such a scenario, someone with at least a couple of active brain cells would stop and recognize some bullshittery going on, but the executive probably TLDRs the sentence and stops after ‘400-500’.
