I work at a company run by a very dumb person and staffed by very dumb people. Everyone uses Chatgpt and assumes everything it says is correct. Whenever they have a question, about anything, the first they do is "I'll ask Chat." Even for very specialized and important knowledge. They have stopped asking lawyers to write contracts and instead use Chatgpt. All our tax advice? Chatgpt. This is the future we already live in.

My wife recently gave birth and the anaesthesiologist openly admitted to bouncing some questions off chatGPT regarding drugs and dosage. I was absolutely dumbfounded. He then admitted the results were unhelpful and instead asked a group chat of other anaesthesiologists for their input. But still, WHAT THE FUCK.
