Comment on Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids

Since it has no inherent model of the world to draw on and only such statistical relationships you should check anything important

maybe you should tell that to the companies that shove it in every crevice of every website and app. why is it on search results? why is it summarizing emails? why is it literally doing anything? it’s useless. actually it’s less than useless. it’s misleading and harmful. and the companies should be held liable for it.
