This situation is somewhat similar to using Wikipedia as a source.
Wikipedia isn't always accurate (I've had to correct entries dealing with Literature), but it is an excellent starting point.
You learn terminology, applications, what are some issues or points of contention: you can use all to start your "real research".
Example: you've always wanted to learn furniture making and you've heard of "joinery", so you Wiki it.
Some of what you read may be debatable, some may be flat-out wrong, but now you have learned some terminology, uses, pros/cons of the types of joinery.
And you use it all as jumping off point for more learning, now that you have an idea of the right questions to ask.
For some people the search is a bother and they want answers right away. Well, the maxim "Act in haste, repent in leisure" endures for a reason.
I like engaging in "the chase"... I learn an awful lot that way, maybe not usable right away, but eventually it pays off.
So I'm thinking the accuracy of ChatGTP is the same way. Use it as a starting point, knowing it probably has not a few mistakes/errors.
Then...Tally-ho!... Onward and upward!... "The game is afoot!"
