The problem is people thinking the tool is a "calculator" (or fact-checker or search engine) while it's just a text generator. It's great for generating text.

But even then it can't keep a paragraph stable during the conversation. For me personally, the best antidote against the hype was to use the tool.

I don't judge people believing it's more than it is though. The industry is intentionally deceiving everyone about this and we also intuitively see intelligence when someone can eloquently express themselves. Seeing that in software seems magical.

We now have a great Star Trek like human machine interface. We only need real intelligence in the backend.
