I asked it LaTex questions for generic data-input-tools. Brought up the datatool package. Then asked for yaml-input-tool. Brought up the yaml-package. Which doesn't exist. Even gave me examples!

Hallucinating is the least surprising behavior there. Anyone who uses LLMs should be expected to deal with completely made up stuff, period. The bigger problem comes from things that are just subtly wrong, that may even pass the verification at first glance, but make you arrive at wrong conclusions unless you put a lot of effort into reviewing it. In my experience it does it so often, that it effectively negates any time savings from using it when it performs well.
