I REALLY wanna bring this post up again now that the study showing habitual ai users are literally losing brain function has been releasedchatgpt is a research assistant to i use it for that. i’ve used it for health issues then fact checked it and my doctors were impressed. i used to come up with a hair care routine that has gotten rid of my dandruff as well. i use it a lot but for stuff like that when i don’t wanna research all the science behind dandruff and knots in my back myself
Another thing is I am very gullible and fall for things easily. If I can’t find trustworthy information on my own or from others, I ask ChatGPT. Just found out that a job I was excited about might be a scam because of a red flag I was unaware of, and I wouldn’t have known if I just relied on my own searching and inner network
I don’t want to sound mean but using ChatGPT is the worst thing you could possibly do if you’re gullible. It’s an LLM which essentially means it works by being really good at bullshitting, and it just happens to be right a certain percentage of the time. The frequency with which they hallucinate is getting worse. Almost half of results are not factual. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949719123000213
ChatGPT is well known for lying! It, and other LLMs, has made up sources, fabricated entire people and articles. It’s very important to be aware of your vulnerabilities and guard against them. Rather than ask ChatGPT, do your research, because even if you find less, it is more likely to all be true!
