Disturbing replies to Tim Urban on Twitter: “What, if anything, do you regularly use ChatGPT (or another LLM) for that has provided a dramatic improvement over your previous workflow?”

Gotten there from the reasonable ChatGPT use below, I was negatively surprised what people use ChatGPT for and totally rely on the ChatGPT responses: [Wayback/Archive] Tim Urban on Twitter: “What, if anything, do you regularly use ChatGPT (or another LLM) for that has provided a dramatic improvement over your previous workflow?”

I think this is about the only reasonable ChatGPT use today: [Wayback/Archive] Barry Kelly on Twitter: “@waitbutwhy – minor scripts for things like ffmpeg or Image/GraphicsMagick – trying to do something with an API I’m not familiar with; often gets screwy when it’s obscure though Things I’m not using it for: any kind of creative writing. Execrable.

Remember that ChatGPT is a text generation model that averages the quality of the text in its corpus that was obtained in the past which means at it’s release, the “knowledge” was already dated.
