How do you validate the accuracy of what it spits out?

Why don't you skip the AI and just use the thing you use to validate the AI output?

Most of what I'm asking it are things I have a general idea of, and AI has the capability of making short explanations of complex things. So typically it's easy to spot a hallucination, but the pieces that I don't already know are easy to Google to verify.

Basically I can get a shorter response to get the same outcome, and validate those small pieces which saves a lot of time (I no longer have to read a 100 page white paper, instead a few paragraphs and then verify small bits)
