Seeing as ChatGPT was trained on other peoples' books, articles, etc., it's not surprising he says that.
Kinda slimy that he probably couldn't even give sources for his new-found child wisdom. Y'know, because ChatGPT is a glorified corporate piracy machine using stolen data and aggregating it for morons like him to read instead of doing a google search.
I don't believe the idea of aggregating information is bad, moreso the ability to properly vet your sources yourself.
I don't know what sources an AI chatbot could be pulling from. It could be a lot of sources, or it could be one source. Does it know which sources are reliable? Not really. AI has been infamous for hallucinating even with simple prompts.
Being able to independently check where your info comes from is an important part of stopping the spread of misinfo. AI can't do that, and, in it's current state, I wouldn't want it to try.
Convenience is a rat race of cutting corners. What is convenient isn't always what is best in the long run.
