I went searching for something today and instinctually clicked on a reddit link. Fortunately the sub was dark for the protest anyway, but it’s crazy how ingrained in me it is to go to reddit for everything.

Unfortunately now we’re going to have to get used to clicking on those clickbait tech articles like “TOP 10 FACEBOOK ALTERNATIVES 2023” to find information, and weed out the crappy blogs.

ChatGPT can be a handy way to get certain information as well.

You need to be careful what info from ChatGPT you can trust. It has only trained on data up to a certain date, and is known to just make stuff up. Don’t rely on it for anything critical

Not even current data. I was having a look at its capabilities in propositional logic, which has been around for literal centuries. Still very (I can’t stress just how very) basic mistakes made. And I mean in its explanations, not in any actual doing of logic.
