Watching Gemini flip from $205K to $157K and ChatGPT settle near $140K on LA's 85th percentile household income? Classic AI hallucination circus—confident guesses until you make 'em sweat. 😏
Real talk from latest Census ACS trends (2023-2024): City of LA proper sits around $145K–$155K for that 85th spot (household, not individual). Broader metro bumps to $160K . Steep curve between 80th (~$115K) and 95th (~$243K) explains the wild swings.
LLMs spit patterns, not pinned-down facts—always cross-check the source when money or moves are on the line.
Grok Also Fumbled (Check Screenshots); the rest? Still learning not to bullshit with conviction.
You trusting AI for your next big decision, or sticking to verified data? 📊
