@joelanman there's a footer on every page of ChatGPT that says "ChatGPT may produce inaccurate information about people, places, or facts"
Increasingly clear that no-one reads that though! Or at least understands the full implications of it
Breaking people away from 50+ years of science fiction ideas about what AI is turns out to be very difficult
@simon True but that's literally the small print :) what does the marketing both formal and informal say? That it's intelligent, it knows things, you can learn things from it, better than search engines and so on
@joelanman most people don't learn about these tools from the official marketing though: they hear about it through word of mouth, or breathless press reporting, or hype on social media
Hard to know how to fix that!
@simon Yeah that's what I meant by informal, I'm sure openAI do not discourage/correct it at the least
@joelanman every formal statement I've seen from them does warn about this, but it's honestly like shouting into a storm at this point
@simon I've seen a lot of things like this which don't really touch on the limitations
