A chat bot looks like a great help to parse through huge volumes of documentation.
If the chatbot built around the docs outputs garbage, that is a telltale sign that the documentation was garbage to start with.
Just because people started developing clever chatbots that misfire, let's not fool ourselves into believing documentation was a solved problem and all docs were squeaky clean.
That’s not how the chat bot works. This particular chat bot can be trained on a bunch of documents and still tell you something that contradicts the facts that are clear to a human in one of the said documents.
It’s a known phenomenon called “hallucination” and this actually gives the chat bot, to some extent, it’s ability to imitate creativity (to put it simply).

ChatGPT failed at basic regurgitation.
How about this:
If the container is empty the function causes undefined behaviour. Otherwise it never throws exceptions (no-throw guarantee).
We avoided having to hold two negatives, and we also put the thing you need to care about up front where it's more likely to be noticed.
