Chatgpt will not get offended when you call it out. Even when it was right and you are wrong. You call it out and now your incorrect notion is gospel as far as

  This is another false belief that a lot of people have. ChatGPT sometimes wont correct false statements but just as often it will. This is also why we read the source and dont believe anything anyone says without proof. Professors and chatbots are both wrong all the time and its up to the student to extract useful knowledge.

  That's the hardest thing for me is that it nearly always accepts your corrections. It will often change answers even if you just ask it if it is sure or suggest it might be wrong. It's weird to say, but GPT has no confidence. Weird because it spouts things out without concern for their validity, and we might call that "confidently incorrect." But it isn't confidence because GPT won't stick to its guns like a human would. So even some of our common notions are completely divorce from how the machine actually works. My major concern when using GPT and especially with hearing how common it is for people to use it as a tutor, is that being a novice you explicitly want a confidently correct tutor. There are certainly good aspects of GPT but you're here to gain knowledge. Being a novice explicitly means you are going to have difficulties recognizing incorrect information so you put yourself in a concerning position of becoming confidently incorrect.
