    ChatGPT alone has over 800 million weekly users yet you doubt this because you personally don’t use one?

      It said humans as in everyone, just giving my anecdotal evidence. No I’m not speaking for everyone. What a sad statistic by the way.

        It doesn’t matter that you personally don’t use it. Other people do and you can’t escape the influence they have on you no more than they can that of an LLM.

        I also find it odd to have such a strong opinion about something you have zero first-hand experience of.

          I live in the mountains with satellite internet. The closest people are from the way station thousands of miles away. Humans have no more influence on me than those strange, collusi shadow creatures that roams the mountain at night, outside my house.

          Fucking try me, I’ve done it my whole life so far. I really don’t care what you find odd about me. Just because I don’t use the technology doesn’t mean I don’t understand it, and that is precisely why I don’t use it.
