Jesus Christ to all the hypotheticals listed here.

Not a judgement on you, friend. You've put forward some really good scenarios here and if I'm reading you right you're kinda getting at how crazy all of this sounds XD

Oh yeah totally—I meant that as an absurd joke haha.

I’m also a little disturbed that people trust chatGPT enough to outsource their relationship communication to it. Every time I’ve tried to run it through it’s paces it seems super impressive and lifelike, but as soon as I try and use it for work subjects I know fairly well, it becomes clear it doesn’t know what’s going on and that it’s basically just making shit up.

I have a freind who's been using it to compose all the apologies they don't actually mean. Lol

That is kinda brilliant

I like it as a starting point to a subject I'm going to research. It seems to have mostly the right terminology and a rough idea of what those mean. This helps me to then make more accurate searches on the subject matter.

Yeah I could imagine that. I’ve also been fairly impressed with it for making something more concise and summarized (I sometimes write too much crap and realize it’s too much).
