Hi Michael.
Using ChatGPT or other LLMs as a valid source of news will end very
badly, and very likely you'll have had no idea anything bad was going
on.
At it's core, it's just a probability of what word is most likely to
come next. People often say the A.I. "talks" with confidence, and as
such, has an incredible power to persuade.
The single best piece of advice I ever heard was from a radio DJ ....
If you say anything with enough confidence in your voice, they'll
believe anything you say.
This and also when the A.I. totally hallucinates but invents these
facts with such clarity and intention, that I have no ingrained reason
to distrust.
The number of times the Python code it's has helped me with contains a
library or shell command that just simply doesn't exist, but I never
caught it because I trust it to not lead me astray ... Which it has
done a few times.
Just my unsolicited opinions. Carry on
Interesting. I have tested ChatGPT many times writing PHP code. I am
currently using it to create a framework. I already have a bunch of
code written and it helps me with certain things.
I interacted with Chat about configuring Postfix, dovecot, squirrel
mail, Bind, let's encrypt (to include configuring cron), and possibly
more.
I have some familiarity with all these except squirrel mail and what I
saw beat all other documents or tutorial sources.
Having lots of PHP experience helps me validate the code. I do not know
everything and I used to use Google to search for answers. I now look
to Chat for help!! I use the free version and I rarely login.
I follow the news often. I'll look to Chat and see what I find.

I'll look into whether or not Trump is willing to withhold $ from Cal.

I found a very good means of getting unbiased reports about
anything. Reports the way they used to be. Just the news. Make your
own decisions. Ask chatgpt. And then you can go go further into the
information. For instance I asked for the latest news on trump and
it told me he was in California and that he might withhold fema
funds. I then asked why and it told me and then it said that most
of the land was under federal responsibility I then asked why the
government didn't clean the land.... etc.
