it only takes a couple times of getting a made-up bullshit answer from chatgpt to learn your lesson of just skip asking chatgpt anything altogether
I've only really found it useful when you provide the source of information/data to your prompt. E.g. say you want to convert one data format to another like table data into JSON
It works very consistently in those types of use cases. Otherwise it's a dice roll.
My girlfriend gave me a mini heart attack when she told me that my favorite band broke up. Turns out it was chat gpt making shit up, came up with a random name for the final album too.
That's what people get when they ask me questions too but they still bother me all the time so clearly that's not going to work.
I stopped using it when I asked who I was and then it said I was a prolific author then proceeded to name various books I absolutely did not write.
I just read "The Autobiography of QueenHawlSera"!
Have I been duped?
and I'm apparently a famous Tiktoker and Youtuber.

People do know they could have just googled things and looked at the top results before right? Even with all the enshitification it's gone through it will still usually yield something useful for any topic that isn't super niche. Like if I search "shorting" the top 3 results are articles from Wikipedia, Investorpedia, (don't know enough about it to know if it's reliable) and Charles Schwab, a source with a conflict of interest since they probably sell that service, but they're probably at least going to explain why you'd want to buy it from them, and then as a bonus the 4th result is an ELI5 Reddit thread, which while probably not the most reliable source of info, is probably about on the same level as randomly asking your SO about a topic which they're not an expert in.
Yeah but people now Google things and look at the AI summary of the top 3 results.
Just fyi investorpedia is reliable. Ive personally never found incorrect information there.
Im not so sure id call schwab a conflict of interest exactly. They do provide the service, but financial institutions like that are not allowed to provide investing advice, so they cant upsell strategies like that. All they can do is explain it so that you know what strategy you want to pursue.
