ChatGPT - I use this as a private tutor (it's great for biomedical stuff) to check my understanding and ask it to correct me if I'm wrong.
How confident are you that it's giving you the correct answers to your queries? I've noticed that it often sounds right, but is sometimes completely wrong, in subtle ways. It always puts together words that are commonly near eachother, and it is always grammatically correct, but it is often absolutely wrong. I've observed that the more specific and technical a question I ask, the more likely it is to be wrong.
I’d expect a tutor to give the right answer, but I wouldn’t expect google to. Chatgpt is often wrong. It’s a problem if you’re trying to learn something and using it as your tutor/truth.
it is NOT a research tool. It is a creative text generation tool. It is not programmed to provide accurate data. It's programmed to provide accurate sounding text.
I'm not sure who is running it (hopefully some well funded academic group), but it restores me faith in humanity a little every time I press sync and don't get CTA'd to sign up for some subscription.
Amazing tool, kudos to the devs, and if there other comes a time where payment is required, I would be happy to chip in with the above being said.
