Is Googles AI just blatantly making things up at this point? These commands sound really cool but I’m not finding any evidence they actually exist … (allegedly native commands )

This may help:
I’m not sure how this is news. It’s what they do, they don’t “know” anything, they just know what answers sound like. And Rhino is a pretty niche topic, the stolen training data isn’t going to be enough to approach correctness.
The problem is that, for us more experienced users we spot the bullshit pretty quickly, but for newbies and other less experienced people they might never find out that that was bullshit.
This can get very very dangerous if people start using, and they started already, to try to DYI some projects without the knowledge of the works/calculations behind it.
Hi @Zaxxon
It’s not entirely hallucinating, but the amount of documentation for Rhino/Grasshopper is just so small (compared to math, physics, programming etc.), that a LOT of errors will pop up, and LLM’s have a hard time discerning where Rhino ends and Grasshopper start. More often than not, whatever you get has some sort of basis in (a sort of) reality. In this case, take a look at Parakeet for Grasshopper:
HTH, Jakob
Sadly true - but I was definitely taken aback at how serious a degradation of the utility of Google search is in evidence here. Gotta change some expectations - seems after decades of providing an extremely useful and largely reliable service they’re opting to totally cannibalize the value of their product.

Thanks @Normand - filing that away for when there’s some more bandwidth for getting deeper into GH
Well, for now at least, you can disable the AI answers, and we can always count on DuckDuckGo ![]()

While it’s not a default Rhino command, there is a Randomize command available in ‘byRhinoGadget’.
Amazing! Exactly the tool I was trying to find - thanks for the tip.
