Some generative chatbots will say something then link to where the info is from. That's good because I can followup

Some will just say something. That's bad and I'll have to search myself afterwards.

It's the equivalent of a book with no cover or a webpage where I can't see what website it's on. Maybe it's reputable, maybe it's not. Without a source I can't really decide

Ya, it’s utterly baffling to me that anyone would use a tool that predicts the next word in a sentence to try and learn something. Besides, what’s the endgame when no reporter could make a living because all their words are laundered and fed into a most people are saying bot? At that point new and unknown news, information, and facts will just be filtered out unless a lot of clickbait sites steal them because they the words don’t show up in the average conversation frequently enough.

Amusing, much like the Cryptocurrency and NFT industry where everyone from the CEO of Openai to the majority of the influencers came from, the extent that the system remind useable at all is reliant on the technology being niche. If it ever actually did become the primary method the tech would fundamentally collapse under its own weight.
