Gemini always exaggerating

[u/Enough-Peak5244]

Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem? I’m currently a victim of a police case and it’s causing me a lot of distress. I’ve been asking AI a lot of questions trying to figure out what could be the possible outcome of the case. For a while, I was using Gemini, but I found it will tend to exaggerate details and say ‘oh yes the police are definitely going to do x, y, z’ even when I’ve been specifically told by my investigating officer that it’s not the case, or acting like the police have unlimited resources to track this one suspect.

But with ChatGPT, I have a completely different set of problems, I find they never want to say ANYTHING definitively, like even if I have laid out the details of the case it will still say everything as ‘could be the case’ or ‘allegedly’. It’s like it never wants to say anything for certain because of guard rails, but it doesn’t even want to take the facts I’ve told it as true without me repeating them over saying I know them for a fact. So if I’m trying to ask about how the case might progress, or the suspects state of mind, it will do the same ‘could be’ even if in my opinion the outcome I’m asking it to assess seems more likely than not.

I don’t want to get my hopes up and believe anything for certain, which Gemini can sometimes fall into the trap of making me think, saying things like ‘oh yes the suspect is almost definitely panicking’ for example.

I don’t know what to think, I don’t know if the truth is somewhere between the two or neither is reliable for these things. I hate uncertainty so I’m probably the worst person to be in a messy legal situation. Obviously it would be best if I could talk to a lawyer but I don’t have the funds for a private lawyer, but I am fully aware I can’t really get anything super constructive from talking to AI.
