How long you been "using" Montana bro?

I haven't yet. I think I should now and then, but trust what I came with.

Instead of asking questions in AF, I have been using AI apps to answer my questions.
Like today, I found a cracked egg in my carton. WTF. I've been cheated and paid too much.
Instead of getting backlash in AF if I asked, DeepSeek said it may not be good to eat because of bacteria getting in.
Not taking a chance, I threw the egg away.

I admit GPS has done it to me. If the GPS messes up it takes me a little time to process where to go even places I have been to many many times.

You needed AI to tell you that?

Tim could have told you that.

Tim could but many AFs will throw tirades at Fern. Too much negative energy.
Of Course, Tim wouldn't do that.

Maybe Tim is just an AI bot?
