PokerTracker 4 Automated Notes

I've been thinking about getting Pokertracker for a while now, but considering I didn't have any viable deposit options I decided to wait until I had at least a manageable bankroll. Finally won a MTT and have about $100 on Carbon, so I went ahead and purchased PT. I've only been using it for about 1k hands or so, but I have a question regarding the notes they have for you. They basically keep notes for you without you doing them yourself (almost seems like cheating). My question is, how accurate are these notes? Maybe a better question is after how many hands on a villian should we seriously start taking into consideration these automated notes and change our play based on them. I had no idea this feature even existed. I watched a video and the guy made it seem like he uses these notes frequently when deciding on the line he wants to take, but he also has thousands of hands on many of his opponents.

I just realized this probably should have been in the "Poker Software" section....sorry about that

Should be 100% accurate. And unlike stats, the notes can be taken into consideration regardless of hand count. It will say things like; "limp CO w/ J10o". Which is obviously quite accurate/usable info.
