I have a bad feeling that this is just going to introduce more shovelware apps that try to shove AI use in without really understanding what they are going to get back.

Yay I can now ensure the json object will look how I want, but lets completely disregard any concern of wether or not the data returned is valuable.

I don't understand why we are already treating these systems as general purpose AI when they are not. (Ok I do understand it, but it is frustrating).

The example given of "look up all my orders in may of last year that were fulfilled but not delivered on time".

First I have found these models incredibly dumb when it comes to handling time. But even beyond that, if you really are going to do this. I really hope you double check the data before presenting the data you get back as true. Worse that is just double checking what it gives back to you is accurate, not checking that it isn't telling you about something.

Every time I try to experiment with supplying data and asking for data back, they fall flat on their face before we even get to the json being formatted properly. That was not the issue that needed to be solved yet when it still fundamentally messes up the data. Often just returning wrong information. Sometimes it will be right though, but that is the problem. It may luck out and be right enough times that you gain confidence in it and stop double checking what it is giving back to you.

I guarantee you someone is going to have a discussion about using this, feeding it data, and then storing the response in a database.
