It makes mistakes with an alarming frequency, all with the same confident tone of writing as when it says anything else. It's wrong so often that you'd need to use another source of information just to confirm it, which defeats the point in using AI in the first place!

It's not smarter than the smartest humans, or even AS smart as them, or even as smart as REGULAR humans. It's not even smart. It's a magic eight ball that sometimes has the correct answer by pure chance. No intellect. No reasoning. Just probability.

Also: It steals from just about everyone; it encourages suicides and mass shootings; it's frequently racist in its outputs; it's burning, boiling and polluting the planet; it's being forced on people who don't want it; and billionares are using it to manipulate people. Probably some other stuff I forgot to mention.

Just in case you weren't sure why AI is bad.
