I had a long, complicated conversation about taxes with Google Gemini.

Are you really sure you want to do that? There are repercussions, if you get it wrong.

you win a story:

Back when the earth was young, I received my corrected homework back, in one of my calculus classes. One problem was bathed in red. I asked the teacher if it was right or wrong, because I could not tell from all the marks on it. She said she initially marked it wrong, because it didn't agree with what the answer key said. But, she continued, I showed all my work, and she couldn't find what I did wrong. So she worked it out herself. She got the same answer I had. The answer key was wrong.

There is a lesson in there, about believing what the "authority" says, without challenging it.
