This are precisely the kind of presumptions people make. I'm never making an argument "because ChatGPT says so". And yes you are absolutely right - chatbot answers are on par with search engine results if not even less reliable in occasions. My point is that I'm not using any of the information as evidence, counterpoints or even advice. People take a stand as if I were.
For example, once I asked ChatGPT about a sensation I feel on my skin after heavy exercise, because googling didn't give me satisfactory results. GPT didn't either, but it gave me a list of close matches. The sensation itself was never a problem for me, never something I intended to change, was never something I would consider going to a doctor for and if I never knew what was causing it my life would carry on just the same. I was simply curious. And out of curiosity I asked here, and the majority of the answers were "you shouldn't be asking to randoms online, how dare you", "this is a question for a doctor, don't ask for medical advice to a chatbot" - both stances baffled me. Never in my post I said anything that suggested I was in pain, discomfort, or that I wanted to change anything about it, or that I was expecting people to tell me how to make it go away- nothing. I just wanted to know what it was, period. People presume.
