It can do that for school level stuff because that material is present in it's input dataset in a redundant manner. For anything niche or domain-specific, it will hallucinate or fail.

I typically don't have an issue getting a grasp on fundamentals, so most of the things I want to ask it about might be beyond school-level. My main way of learning is to ask questions to make sure I understand the material - which means more potential hallucination points, and maybe worse impact because I'll think I get it, but I've just been confidently lied to that I understood.

For example, I've wondered for a while if patches of space with less gravitational curvature "age" faster than patches that are more heavily distorted by gravity wells, and what the implications of that might be. Makes sense, we know that gravity slows down subjective time. But I can't get a productive answer out of an LLM because I can't trust it, and it's not worth bothering my physicist friends about.

I believe that when the bubble bursts, education will be one genuine usecase for LLMs.

When the bubble bursts, what will survive is what makes money. Education doesn't make money unless it's in the national interest.
