I've heard about financial planning and health tracking, but unsure where to start.

Not rocket science, but ...

I used ChatGPT to adjust what exercises I am doing. I asked what exercises impacted what muscles (primary and secondary), put it in a spreadsheet, so I could visualize the overlap. Then asked what muscle groups am I not addressing. Finally what exercises would address those neglected muscles.

End result is my workouts are more productive.

Asking whatever questions pop into my mind and it gives me a nice overview of it.

Today I was on the bus and was curious about how the many moons of other planets affect those planets..

Basically take “stoner thoughts” and talk to it lol

I’ve essentially stopped using Google in favor of ChatGPT and Perplexity. It’s just excellent for answering simple questions without me having to click or search on some random webpage.

(Use Gemini 2.5 pro in Google AI Studio instead. 25 free requests per day using up to 1M tokens each. I honestly keep being amazed about what it's capable of.)

I'm having some issues with Gemini giving me inaccurate information with a lot of confidence. Have you faced this? And if so, how do you ensure you're able to trust its responses.
