Quoting: "Here's a first... I just got an email because ChatGPT suggested an article I wrote to somebody. Could I send them a copy? Except, I never wrote the article, it doesn't exist. "PLEASE realize right now that this tool isn't pulling out cool references for you. It's making plausible titles and matching them to authors' names." Further down the chain: "I tried using it to find REAL poetry by REAL poets on particular topics. It even told me what books the REAL poems were in. I owned several of the books - the poems didn't exist." Also: "A friend of mine saw his scientific articles attributed to other scientists. There articles are crucial to scientific careers." People without technical knowledge are going to start believing everything it says, and yet so often it's just utter garbage. You may know it's garbage, you may know its limitations, but you are in the minority. The vast, vast majority of people will believe the BS it produces.
