But the thing is often people haven’t written it because it’s not profitable to, or not feasible to make it widely accessible. It also serves as a tool for synthesising information in one central place, it’s common to see/hear people in education asking (mostly chatGPT) to explain things because the explanation at their level isn’t available, or the information is sparse, or hard to find. It’s like a search engine for human knowledge, which is an amazingly powerful tool.
It has flaws, yes, but shouldn’t be condemned by an unduly high value put on what humans have published
Sorry, but this is completely wrong.
Bots like chatGPT will straight up lie or make shit up or give demonstrably false answers when asked simple questions. It is not an information repository or search, it is a text generator. It is completely incapable of verifying if the text it generates has any correlation with reality, only with whatever text it’s trying to replicate the patterns of.
Do not buy into the idea that it is some revolutionary tool for writing or learning.
