I use it as something to talk to about incredibly nerdy and/or obscure things no one else would be willing to talk about.

Same. I have a lot of ideas I like to explore that people find boring or tedious. I used to just read, but it's pleasant to have the option to play with those thoughts more.
I love pitching scifi premise/half book ideas at ChatGPT and having it write short stories that end the way I want them to, dammit.
Asking ChatGPT about safety of someone traveling instead of asking that person is the nerdy thing to do. Somehow a hairstylist doesn't invoke image of a nerd in me. That is why I find this story implausible.
That’s honestly just sad. Not the fact you doing it, but rather the fact you have nobody to talk to about those things.
I feel like this kind of response is a good example of why someone wouldn't talk to others about things.
When I say nerdy and/or obscure, I mean things like "are quantum fluctuations ergodic and how does this affect affect the probability of a quantum fluctuation triggering a new big bang?"
Call me weird, I know absolutely nothing about what you just wrote but I'm super intrigued now and would love to know more, ah. But that's just because I'm generally curious about pretty much everything.
But I can see why it can be hard to find people to talk about that. Heck it might be hard to find people who even know about that topic in general.
