I use AI in my blog to translate German texts into English. This works quite well for the most part, but sometimes the meaning of the text is not recognised and translated incorrectly. Could AI answer my questions about paragliding in the various disciplines? Would it be conceivable to dispense with the knowledge in forums, YouTube, blogs, fellow pilots, books etc. and rely solely on text-based AI à la ChatGPT? I have asked one question from various category and checked ChatGPT's answer for accuracy.

Who among us has not yet had an encounter of the first kind (visual contact) with our flying colleagues, the glider pilots?
