As long as you understand the limitations, AI is just a vastly more efficient way to find information in large knowledge bases. For a topic that you know nothing about a chatbot gives you the ability to work through the information in a conversational manner, honing in on the specific bits you're trying to understand and filling in the "things that I don't know I don't know" holes, and then you can go to the source material and verify the details.
