A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Oh my God why do I see this all the time on here. Nobody wants a massive copy/paste wall of text of whatever garbage chatGPT generated.
I suggest using the Block User button when you see something that sparks this type of reaction. I make liberal use of it myself, and I have a much better time on Lemmy as a result.
I have my chatGPT configured to produce short answers. It’s really nice
Me no want read! Me want 26 minute YouTube video!
LMFAO oh yeah the reading is the problem, not the low-effort AI drivel. Dumbass take.
As long as there is quality in the response I don't see why you shouldn't share it. And there was no other post summarizing it as good.
Because if people want to see what ChatGPT says, they can ask it themselves. You're not contributing anything by copy-pasting from ChatGPT. If you have commentary on what ChatGPT had to say, that could be different, but you literally just used ChatGPT's output as your whole comment.
But couldn’t a person have figured out everything you just said on their own?
I disagree, it's the content that matters most and not the effort you put into a comment.
Aight, then I'll just tell gpt to make it sound like a reddit comment next time lol
I just don't understand why you want to copy-paste ChatGPT. Surely the parent commenter could access ChatGPT if they wanted, so you're not bringing a new perspective. If "content" is all that matters, you could generate a thousand different ChatGPT responses and reply to their comment with each one, but that's not acceptable. Why not?
People come here for a conversation with other people, and copy-paste ChatGPT responses don't actually contribute to that. If all they want is information/content, there are better places to find it. They could use ChatGPT, sure, but they could also use Wikipedia or even an economics textbook. It's up to them. Even if they use ChatGPT, they'd probably prompt it a few times in a few different ways to get the best info for them.
If you really want to use ChatGPT in your responses, why not add your own voice? When I suggested commentary I don't mean that you should just prompt ChatGPT into pretending to be a human, I mean that you should add your own perspective. Editorialize. Pull out the good bits.
