The only problem with the “ChatGPT is bullshit” argument is that it is only half true.
ChatGPT, when provided with a synthetic prompt is reliably a synthesizer, or to use the loaded term, a bullshiter.
When provided with an analytic prompt, it is reliably a translator.

sounds like most people tbf
There are people who in many situations use as much critical though as ChatGPT does.
ChatGPT isn't as good as a human who puts in a lot of effort, but in many jobs it can easily outperform humans who don't care very much.
