I attended the hearing for the hapless lawyer who used ChatGPT in his filings and here's my report. A cautionary tale not just for lawyers but for journalists: not about the machine but about our responsibility.

@jeffjarvis ´ChatGPT, as it is a wronged party in this case: wronged by the lawyers and their blame, wronged by the media and their misrepresentations, wronged by the companies —Microsoft especially — that are trying to tell users just what Schwartz wrongly assumed: that ChatGPT is a search engine that can supply facts. It can’t. It supplies credible-sounding — but not credible — language. That is what it is designed to do. That is what it does, quite amazingly. ´

Someone put "intactivism" into a chatbot and it spewed out several statements attributed to me, that are adjacent to what I would say, but really just generic statements about #intactivism with my name tagged on. None quotes anything I have actually said. One is so far from what I actually say, I'd call it a lie.
