These comments may seem silly at a glance, like joking about using WebMD instead of going to the doctor. But if this is the kind of unhealthy over-reliance on AI that OpenAI considers "cool," we should all be worried.

One of the libs I like to watch recently used it for the first time and they are "frightened and awed" that chatGPT could provide a summary of their social media accounts. Like, this thing just made a list of things they've talked about and then turned that list into a paragraph of text and this person is freaking out. I like to watch this particular lib because they give me a good barometer for how "normies" behave around stuff. And based on this, I think there'll be a dozen major AI worshipping religions springing up in the US by the end of the decade.
