If ChatGPT is impressive when discussing any subject, unless you’re an expert, it should be a journalist. Okay, I know that sounds like a sleight but I mean it in reverse: we give it a hard time for failing at something humans can’t do either: be an expert at everything. Journalists do a great job despite regularly driving SMEs nuts. I use it not for querying immutable truths but for exploring topics. It trivializes what used to be paralyzing for me: “where do I begin if I want to learn about X?”
