I've been using BingGPT or whatever you want to call it and it seems OK to me. The only obvious hallucination I've seen is that I asked it to summarize a relatively new but niche book, and it was curiously and bizarrely wrong - it had all the characters right, and 30kft view of the plot right, but all the details wrong.
I asked it about a more mainstream work and it got it exactly right.
Since then I've been using it for more creative tasks (write this) or having it as a troubleshooting assistant (this isn't working on FreeBSD, explain why), and it's done great and saved me a lot of work. I thought this was a fringe case when I read about doing it with ChatGPT, but it really is extremely useful. This is a low-pripority problem I spent a few hours googling one day and got nowhere, Bing/Sydney got me 99% of the solution and wrote the scripts I needed for me.
Also, it's a way of using ChatGPT without providing your phone number, which i refused to do.
