IMO it’s going to make a bunch of mushmind people if not used correctly(when are things used correctly these days) and I also think AI needs to go back in the box until it actually works properly.
the only thing i’ve seen it do that is actually helpful is duckduckgo’s summary thing, because it has to actually pull the text from a whitelist of sources and thus is very unlikely to just make things up
but even then i’d only use it for pretty simple things like “what’s the total population of these cities”, so that i can then click the sources it lists and check that everything seems sensible, trusting the answer without at least a quick sanity check is insane
It’s been programmed to do what it does. imo that’s the bare minimum of working properly - a program doing what you want it to do (from a dev standpoint)
