I'd never heard of HuggingFace in my life and I appreciate having a presumably non-junk AI that doesn't require money or a phone number before setting up. I literally cannot sign up for ChatGPT because I don't have a working phone. That said, I think judging on my first pass, I would still be a little wary of relying heavily on this. I asked it about the difference between the words "isim" and "ad," and it told me that

In Turkish language, "isim" means name while "ad" means word/message. Is there anything else I can assist you with?

Which would be great, but any dictionary or google search would tell you the two are synonyms, and that the only difference is isim is the more "polite" pre-revolution form. This would be with web search turned on -- is it more accurate when turned off? It doesn't seem so.

Asking it the same question about siyah and kara did tell me that, while they both mean "black," one of them can be used to be more poetic (dark, deeply sad, stained, etc.). Which is correct, but it confused which one is which. Also that ak means red (this is hilariously wrong).

Tbf, it did immediately apologize for giving me wrong information when asked again or corrected, and maybe this works better with
more common languages that have more available resources, but it definitely has a little ways to go and I would view it as more of a jumping off point for me to verify
