How do you get around an LLM's knowledge cutoff?

  • ChatGPT's knowledge cutoff is October 2023
  • Claude 3.5 Sonnet's knowledge cutoff is April 2024
  • Gemini 2.0 Flash's knowledge cutoff is August 2024

This means that, by default, the LLMs don't know about updates to languages/libraries/frameworks after these dates. What's your preferred method for working around this? Feel free to include answers for LLMs and/or other AI tools like Cursor, Windsurf, etc.
