I wasn't referring specifically to LLMs when talking about the mushrooms. You could do something more sophisticated. I'm not an expert on it, but you could probably compare the images against a known, validated dataset to give you a baseline and then use some fancy AI algorithm to hone in on the best match, or do it the other way around -- let the AI take a first guess and then validate that its not hallucinating.

They're already trying to use AI for breast cancer scans and what not, I don't see why we can't do it for mushrooms.
