Ask HN: How do I use AI as a tool if some answers are objectivity incorrect?
I'm really at stump here, I want to use AI to make my life easier with work but how do I if I can't trust its answers 100% of the time? I mean I understand it needs human intervention but if I don't know the answer itself, it involves me stopping at the exact time I need to, searching for the correct answer elsewhere entirely and or just giving up on it, its quite exhausting.
The process for me is usually I go down a path with an LLM; I get excited at the prospect of using it as a tool. In the middle i spot an error. Question it, the LLM responds with a contradiction in the same conversation. I realise it means the last 5 minutes of dialogue was all incorrect, and I get frustrated that it wasted my time. I mean they're selling it as intelligent but where is the intelligence, to me its more akin to a search engine where instead of showing me a full article, it returns the excerpt of text instead. Useful.. maybe?
I know people use this in their work daily so I'm just curious how do they do it? Do they ignore the blaring errors like they aren't there? I know this sounds sarcastic but I really want to know because especially in my own projects, I find it hard to move on from not 'perfection' per say, but anything other than bad.
Thank you in advance and looking forward to other opinions also

Show HN: I made a website to write online math as fast as paper
I want to preface this by saying I'm extremely new to webdev, and this is my first finished product. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
Every digital math tool, at least for me, has been significantly worse than just pen and paper. LaTeX is far too slow, and most WYSIWYG editors are lacking features.
Scratchpad is my solution to this. You type shortcuts, and they render in real time inline using MathQuill. Stuff that I've added:
- Greek letters, lower and uppercase - Matrices (super clunky in every other editor I've tried!) - Accents like vector arrows and derivative dots - Tons of other useful symbols (set notation, gradients, plusminus, partial derivatives)
In my experience using it while in development, it's been substantially faster than pen and paper. There's a bit of a learning curve with the shortcuts, but I tried to make it as intuitive as possible.
The whole thing is on one index.html file, just open it and start writing. I would really appreciate any notes, especially from anyone who has experience with digital math notes. Thanks!

Show HN: I seriously think this is the most effective email leadgen tool
I've been continuously improving upon it. Basically, leverages Google Maps and Google Search data to inform an autoexpanding enrichment cycle to full an email list target for local and digital businesses.
