How can you tell if an A.I. response is accurate?

You can't. A.I. is algorithm based and does not check for accuracy.

It is the first information listed in a Google search.

I just trust it because I'm lazy.

I understand that using A.I to write my responses is considered cheating and it will result in a zero on the assignment and additional consequences.

I understand and will not cheat. I will accept the consequences if I do use it.

I will probably still try to use it and get away with it.

I refuse to accept that A.I. is inaccurate.

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
