# Why won't Tuhi answer general questions like the weather or coding?

Tuhi is focused on your Mac, its storage and Storage Studio, so it politely says a question is "outside what I can help with" when it's about general knowledge, the weather, other apps or coding. Keeping to that scope is what lets every answer be grounded in your real storage rather than guessed.

It will still tell you about your Mac itself — its name, model, macOS version, memory, free space or the time — and suggest where it can help, such as freeing space or showing what's using your disk.
