That's why you dont use LLMs as a knowledge source without giving them tools.

"Agents use tools in a loop to achieve a goal."

If you don't give any tools, you get hallucinations and half-truths.

But you give one a tool to do, say, web searches and it's going to be a lot smarter. That's where 90% of the innovation with "AI" today is coming from. The raw models aren't gettin that much smarter anymore, but the scaffolding and frameworks around them are.

Tools are the main reason Claude Code is as good as it is compared to the competition.
