Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

Anyone blindly trusting it is a grade A moron, and would’ve just found another way to fuck up whatever they were working on if ChatGPT didn’t exist.

ChatGPT is a tool, if someone doesn’t know what they’re doing with it then they are gonna break stuff, not ChatGPT.

This is exactly like people who defend Tesla by saying it's your fault if you believed their claims about what a Tesla can do...

Which isn't a surprise, there's a huge overlap between being gullible to believe either companies claims, and some people will vend over backwards to defend thos companies because of sink cost fallacy

I don’t know what OpenAI even claims that ChatGPT can do, but if you trust marketing from any company then you’re gonna get burnt.

I’m not defending the company in any way, more just defending that in general LLMs can be useful tools, but people need to make educated decisions and take a bit of responsibility.
