Can we trust chatGPT or my questioning method is not correct?
Posted by Abdullah on February 19, 2025 at 2:47 amCan we trust chatGPT or my questioning method is not correct? <div>
My question: What percentage of people can be sensitized by 3ppm CMI
chatGPT answer: Research findings: At 3 ppm, sensitization rates vary widely, but reports suggest that around 5-10% of individuals may become sensitized at this concentration.

Keep in mind that ChatGPT only has access to abstracts or open access journals, while leaving many out, so there’s some bias (access bias?) to its answer. I’d feel more comfortable checking EU opinión on the topic, or CIR review.

ChatGPT is not 100% reliable so you can’t trust it 100%. Although people are also not 100% reliable so it’s probably on par with most people you’ll ask.
For this question, you should also ask ChatGPT to “list it’s sources” and then double check the source to see if it is accurately reporting
Here’s what Perplexity says. It sounds more reasonable than what ChatGPT says.
—————-
Based on the available search results, there is no specific information about the percentage of people that can be sensitized by 3 ppm of CMI (chloromethylisothiazolinone). However, we can draw some relevant insights from the data provided:
- A skin sensitization study found that some leave-on products with MCI/MI (a mixture of methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone) at 7.5 ppm may increase the risk of sensitization induction 3
. - Rinse-off products with 15 ppm MCI/MI were not associated with a potential increased risk of skin sensitization induction 3
. - In a Swedish baseline patch test study from 2003 to 2012, 3.1% of patients reacted to 200 ppm MCI/MI (3:1 ratio) 3
. - A more recent study using 2000 ppm patch test allergen showed an increase in positive results over time, with the highest prevalence in 2015 at 9.41% for MCI/MI 5
Given that these studies used higher concentrations than 3 ppm, it’s likely that the percentage of people sensitized by 3 ppm CMI would be lower than the percentages reported in these studies. However, without specific data on 3 ppm CMI sensitization, it’s not possible to provide an exact percentage.

I was just testing chatGPT.
I did use Perplexity for only 10 minutes now and i like it more than chatGPT.
One question about these studies.
Why don’t they study sensitization rate of the upper limit of preservatives like 15ppm & 7.5ppm CMI MI instead of 200 and 2000ppm?
No one uses that high amount so no benefit of knowing what does that high amount do.

Perplexity doesn’t generate own answers, it summarizes google search with AI. You can do it with OpenAI’s ChatGpt too, just enable “Search” mode.

Thanks
From where chatGPT answers without search mode?
