Do LLMs "have" the "abillity" to be told they are wrong or incorrect and be able to contest that? (lemmy.world)

I think i've only once flat out told one it was wrong about a specific assertion I quoted and it immediately was able to find its way to what I knew to be the correct claim.

I just wonder what would happen if i was in fact mistaken and I told it confidently it was wrong without elaborating

Because search engines have been dogshit for the past 2 years (give or take~); AI need to be steered hard but as long as you're asking for sources (and don't just read what they're saying) you can get an answer out of them.

I only find what I'm searching for on Google if I already know the exact keywords for what I'm specifically looking for (...and even then...); if I don't know the exact terms of what I'm looking for (like @affenlehrer@feddit.org with his bike brake issue) then google is useless nowadays, which wasn't always true. So now my process is to google first, ask an AI second, and I end up using AIs way more than I would like.
