    Okay, to be a bit glib, why don’t you ask someone in real life? After all, it’s all disinformation on here.

    Sure, the information age comes with problems, but do consider what the world was like before. There were a lot of things people just didn’t know and couldn’t ever look up or ask about - unless they were motivated enough to dig through a library.

      Take a look at my comment to the most up voted comment and try the same thing again in a week or two—I think you’ll understand what I mean then.

          Well, I thought you were aware of the influence LLM answers have on opinion formation in any country in the world.

        Oh fuck off. ChatGPT doesn’t “think”, and if you run to it to get an opinion, neither do you.

          I don’t base my opinion on LLM answers. That’s just an example of the kind of answer you get when you ask the latest OpenAI model. This served to illustrate what reality looks like for billions of people and how easy it is to manipulate it when you have control over it. Whether you use LLMs yourself is irrelevant – many if not most people already do and the number is sure to growing.
