I'm either a cranky old lady or a reveloutionary. Or a simple Luddite. Who can say? But I'm jaw-droppingly surprised at the number of times I've been hearing "I used ChapGPT to..." lately from people who are not stupid and can write or research or whatever themselves. I don't begrudge a decent tool, but the fact that very intelligent, well-informed folks don't connect the dots from the art theft and giant drain on power grids to this convenience tool blows my mind.
End rant. 😔

@HumToTable Last week I saw a lawyer on a Zoom call explain the topic we were discussing to her client by saying, "well, Google AI says..."

It was very difficult not to scream, but I managed.

@msbellows @HumToTable Nobody’s learned anything from all the attorneys getting sanctioned for filing shit with bullshit AI citations? 
@HumToTable @mivox I mean, this is an Oregon lawyer, and Oregon is where a court sanctioned a lawyer $10,000 last month for incorrect AI citations.
