I will walk around the gratuitous rudeness and state the obvious:
No, the pretend above 95% accuracy is not as good as the up to 50% rates of hallucinations reported by OpenAI for example.
The difference in experiences is easily explainable in my opinion. Much like some people swear by mediums and psychics and other easily see through it: it's easy to see what you want to see when a nearly random experience lands you a good outcome.
I don't appreciate your insinuation that I am making up numbers and I though it shouldn't go unanswered but do not mistake this for a conversation. I am not in the habit of engaging with such demeaning language.

It is "Gratuitous rudeness" to say these numbers without any sort of sourcing/backing are pulled from someone's ass? Then I guess so be it, but I'm also not a fan of people speaking about absolute numbers as some sort of truth, when there isn't any clear way of coming up with those numbers in the first place.
Just like there are "extremists" claiming LLMs will save us all, clearly others fall on the other extreme and it's impossible to have a somewhat balanced conversation with either of these two groups.
