I do feel like mushrooms get a bad rep compared to plants -- there are certain mushrooms (in the UK at least) that are very safe to forage. Boletes (if you check for staining and red on the stem), agaricus, hedgehog fungi, blewits, shaggy inkcaps...

Others I wouldn't touch with a barge pole, even if I'm 99% sure. Any of the small white funnels (miller etc.) I'm not interested in, and likewise amanitas I won't go near.

But obviously the point stands that using AI, rather than books or trusted sources, is a non-starter. Always use multiple sources when foraging (message for a general audience).
