Define "reliable source".
A source is reliable if can be consulted by other people than the editor
to check the content.
Is this possible with ChatGPT? No, becaue if you address the same
question to CHatGPT, you will have a different answer.
In this case how the people verificaying the information can check that
the editor did not invent the result?
Kind regards

Dear Wikimedians,
Two days ago, a participant in one of our edit-a-thons consulted
ChatGPT when writing an article on the Macedonian Wikipedia that did
not exist on any other language edition. ChatGPT provided some output,
but the problem was how to cite it.
The community on the Macedonian Wikipedia has not yet had a discussion
on this matter and we do not have any guidelines. So, my main
questions are the following:
* Can ChatGPT be used as a reliable source and, if yes, how would the
citation look like?
* Are there any ongoing community discussions on introducing guidelines?
My personal opinion is that ChatGPT should be avoided as a reliable
source, and only the original source where the algorithm gets the
information from should be used.
Best regards,
Kiril
