Gregory's Server@neauoire a few people at the company I work for use ChatGPT all the time, and I'm alarmed at how...gullible, I guess...they are about what it says, even after they've been using it long enough to know it lies ALL THE TIME. They mostly don't advertise it, but I know who's using ChatGPT, and I can tell when someone new starts using it. The kinds of lies it tells, and the confidence with which it tells them, is like a beacon flashing in their Slack messages and their PRs.

 @neauoire more Google searches and StackOverflow spelunking. It's usually not stuff WikiPedia would cover. Writing code, figuring out how to do stuff in Linux, writing docs or email or whatever about code. It's a tech company, so it's not general knowledge...the problem is ChatGPT often doesn't actually know the answers, any more than a Google search would have a simple answer...but ChatGPT makes one up. |
@swelljoe so when you say using, do you mean like, they open that chatgpt website and ask it stuff that you'd otherwise look up on wikipedia?
