OpenAI's maintenance of ChatGPT's limitations, as evidenced by its inability to answer a basic question even in 2026, highlights the ongoing challenges in natural language processing. This means that website owners should be cautious when relying on ChatGPT or similar AI models for content generation or customer support, as they may not always provide accurate or helpful responses. Specifically, if a website owner is using ChatGPT to generate content or answer frequently asked questions, they should be prepared to review and edit the output to ensure it is accurate and helpful. To mitigate these limitations, website owners can take a few steps: first, regularly review and update their llms.txt files to ensure they are blocking or allowing the correct AI traffic; second, consider using multiple AI models or tools to generate content or answer questions, to reduce reliance on a single model; and third, implement clear guidelines and review processes for AI-generated content to ensure it meets their quality standards.
