I'm no expert, so take what I'm about to say with a grain of salt.

Fundamentally, a LLM is just a fancy autocomplete; there's no source of knowledge it's tapping into, it's just guessing words (though it is quite good at it). Correspondingly, even if it did have a pool of knowledge, even that can't be perfect, because the truth is never quite so black and white in many areas.

In other words, hard.
