    If I have to check a list of sources to make sure what ChatGPT spat out was accurate, why don’t I just skip the middleman and make that determination with my own brain? That’s what I don’t get. Is that a skill that’s being lost now or something?

      I mean, I use it a lot for programming. I try the solution given and if it doesn’t work/breaks then I go double-check the sources to see what they actually said.

      But generally it’s “good enough” the first time around, or it gives me an alternate way of thinking about the problem that I didn’t consider.
