    They don’t. They say we made this thing, see what you can do with it. They also put disclaimers on ChatGPT to say not to rely on it to be correct.

    One can infer from that, that any use for which you are relying on accuracy is incorrect use. Which is why it’s critical to have any output filtered through a domain-capable human.

      They don’t.

      “The thing that I think will be most impactful on that five to ten year timeframe is AI will actually discover new science.” - Sam Altman

      This is what the face of OpenAI explicitly says their product is for. Do you have anything more concrete? Or am I just to buy into this infinite good faith and assume that anything dumb Trump Sammy says is just hyperbole?

        He’s not selling anything specific and not to end users. You’re talking about something completely different. The way Sam and investors and corporate customers talk about AI is pretty misleading, but it’s not misleading users. No one looks at AI replacing CSRs and inventing new sciences, whatever the fuck that means, and jumps to it can unerringly diagnose a rash. And even if they did, the bot explicitly says not to trust it.

        If some dirt farmer asks it how to avoid losing his family farm in a drought and takes ChatGPT’s advice to plant chocolate chips and loses the farm anyway, I suggest that’s a user error.

          We might as well be discussing whether the tobacco industry has mislead customers because they have a little disclaimer on their cartons.

          Mainstream media publishes Sammy’s statements uncritically. ChatGPT releases ads. It’s extremely clear he is misleading the general public, his users. I don’t know why you’re in denial over this.
