         | I just so happen to run an old online fan made Pokemon game
         | where people can be banned for misbehavior (e.g. cheating).
         | Let's just say I can confirm this sentiment.

       | The thing about ChatGPT, I don't know if the answer is wrong or
       | made up. I have a friend who helps me with Swedish and he isn't a
       | language tutor - so sometimes he asks ChatGPT to explain
       | something I've asked him. The crucial difference is that he's
       | knowledgeable enough on the matter to vet the quality and then
       | pass the information to me. If he or I were to just ask ChatGPT
       | without any verification, then I would not be able to trust the
       | answer.

         | It's like P vs NP. There's tons of questions I get during my
         | job that googling is not enough to answer. Whereas asking
         | chatgpt yields results that are then easily verifiable with
         | some googling.

       | it's used the way LMGTFY was, and as the tagline[1] implies) to
       | just ask ChatGPT _instead of humans_.
       | 
       | LMGTFY returned human results that weren't SEO rubbish at the
       | time for the most part, which you could classify yourself (or by
       | others) as trustworthy or not. ChatGPT itself still sometimes
       | hallucinates on pretty basic information and other users _don 't
       | get exactly the same result as you_.

         | with what will help them, then it's directly against the
         | purpose these exist for: the questioner put zero effort for a
         | trivial answer, and you know that.

       | that creator missed the point of the original that they derived
       | it from.

       | People pasting full llm outputs into help forum responses has
       | been one of the most annoying trends.

       | If you can't do more than what a llm would say, you're already
       | replaceable.
