Hi all, I’ve tried using Claude several times now and it’s failed at extremely basic tasks every time. I’m new to AI use and am not seeing the value proposition from tools like this. Claude continuously gives me incorrect information with seemingly no floor. It got something as basic as checking whether a book exists wrong. I can ask it to check and confirm its answers and I’ll be told it’s completely certain about a verifiably false response. It couldn’t even tell me today’s correct date. I’ve also tried using it for more complex tasks. I asked it to analyze some data for me. It couldn’t read the entire excel sheet (150 rows). It read the first 25 and said it had analyzed all of it. Claude gave me an analysis. I questioned it. It immediately changed its answer to the opposite conclusion. I questioned again. It switched back. Any follow up, even the slightest push, and it swaps to give me whatever it thinks the response I’m looking for is. All of this makes for enormously frustrating interactions. So if it can’t fact check basic information, can’t ingest data, and gives analysis based on agreement, then what is the use case? I wouldn’t trust Claude to do anything for me at this point. submitted by /u/PiWright
