No, you can't, you need to check in the official documentation.
Elasticsearch 7.17 was [released](https://www.elastic.co/blog/whats-new-elastic-7-17-0) in February 2022, the training data of the AI you used only goes until the end of 2021, so it has no information about Elasticsearch 7.17 and its compatibilities, the information it gave you is just made up.
