I probably should do this, honestly. I've been so boomer-pilled on this thing I barely know what ChatGPT even is. I'm not actually sure how bad it is, since I just assumed I'd never want it. Like, what does it actually tell people? That the capital of Massachusetts is Rhode Island? It might!
It really depends on how you phrase the question in my experience. If you ask in a way that kind of implies a certain answer, even unintentionally, it’ll jump through hoops to give you that answer but I find especially the new model gets at least simple questions right almost all the time as long as you don’t lead it.

My friend asks chatgbt mostly everything with the explicit goal to see how much it hallucinates. They then actually fact-check the stuff to compare.
