This has been my experience with a lot of my interactions using ChatGPT.
The popular narrative about genAI is this ideal world where you just ask
It a question and it gets you the “correct” answer every single time. The more I use it, unfortunately that is turning out NOT to be the case. I am still very optimistic about AI but this generation of AI feels like it has ways to go before it can be trusted
- mekkkkkk 3y agoA thousand times this. I'm hesitant to use ChatGPT whenever I really want the information to be correct. It's fine for getting a general outline of an historic event, for example, but not for getting the exact year and date of said event. I've been burned by way too many close-but-not-really's. I think GitHub Copilot made this very obvious. It can outline stuff really well, but you really have to double check and fix everything that it spits out as soon as complexity is above a certain (very low) threshold. ChatGPT is quite far from being the Google replacement that some people pretends/wants it to be. It's like that annoying friend who is extremely confident in announcing facts, but is often wrong. I keep giving it the side eyes.
