There are lots of articles about bad use cases of ChatGPT that Google already provided for decades.

Want to get bad medical advice for the weird pain in your belly? Google can tell you it’s cancer, no problem.

Do you want to know how to make drugs without a lab? Google even gives you links to stores where you can buy the materials for it.

Want some racism/misogyny/other evil content? Google is your ever helpful friend and garbage dump.

What’s the difference apart from ChatGPT’s inability to link to existing sources?

    I get chatgpt prompts in every search on bing and specifically for a troubleshoot in Linux. It is garbage, and I skip it completely.

    It’s only good for stringing together nonsense, say for meeting minutes to pretend the meeting actually did something useful.

      That’s the thing: LLMs are great for any content where quality and accuracy doesn’t matter.

      • Stock photos
      • Product descriptions
      • Meeting notes
      • Summaries of stuff that’s so boring and useless that you can’t be bothered to read the long form

      Then again, if the conteent doesn’t matter, why even create it?
