What in the picture indicates any form of filling?
What you can see is cheese, there is probably butter too, but those 2 have zero carbohydrates, so adding carbohydrates based on filling would be pure speculation.
There are no carbohydrates to see beyond the bread.
There is no evidence of any filling, as there is zero bulge in the bread.
The answer should be based on what can be seen, with a remark to that effect, and that there possibly could be more if it contains filling that isn't visible.
The AI could ask about a possible filling, instead of just making shit up with zero evidence.
To your point -
If a friend texted me the same picture and question, I would do exactly what you described. Try to give a calculated guess that wouldn't change.
Unless I was lazy and Googled it.
Google's carbohydrate tool says 8g, then the AI overview goes on to contradict that by saying "A standard cheese sandwich typically contains between 25 and 35g."
