Asking AI question can help identify that there is a potential unknown unknown, but its rarely enough to know what what unknown unknown is, it's generally something you have to actively seek out manually and it can be hard.

Your use of AI, and what you can get out of AI says more about your capabilities, your understanding, and you perspective of the world which are reflected in how you ask the question, than it does speak to the capabilities of the AI.
