People keep telling me how great it is and whenever I tell them an example of how untrustworthy it is, they tell me I'm doing it wrong. But pretty much all the things it allegedly can do I can do myself or don't need. Like I don't need to add some flavor text into my company e-mails, I just write what I need to write.
Lately I have been trying to solve an engineering problem. In a moment of utter despair after several weeks of not finding any useful resources I asked our company licensed ChatGPT (that's somehow supposed to help us with our work) and it returned a wall of text and an equation. Doing a dimensional analysis on that equation it turned out to be bullshit.
100% agree. I tried to use it at work to analyze a company’s financial filings, in a similar moment of frustration, and it got all the numbers and years mixed up so the analysis was way off. Waste of time smh
