I do. I treat ChatGPT output the same as Wikipedia content. I find what I am looking for then immediately open the source to confirm. I would never in a million years take ChatGPT output or Wikipedia content and blindly reference it without doing my due diligence.

OP is using LastPass still, oof...


I used to do that with blurays when I was uploading releases to TPB.


>These people are trained to sit in a cubicle for 8 hours a day reading mostly garbage and making objective summaries.

You just described the entire Cyber Mission Force, lol.



Personally I think having the option to make grok's response public can be helpful, much like a community note.

And yet they won't do anything about sellers who change their listing to a completely different product once it gets to the 4-5 star range. Can't tell you how many times I've been looking at some tool or gadget only to glance at the reviews and see people mentioning socks.
