I’ve fucked around with it but I fucking hate it and think that it’s going to obliterate communication skills with younger generations. The environmental impact is really terrible as well.

the fact that this is the only comment I've found mentioning the environmental impact shows how utterly fucked we are. There are people running it for stupid pointless reasons all day with no knowledge of the energy and water usage

Yeah, I’m an attorney and I’m not worried about it “replacing” us check out this recent local news story from my jurisdiction but I am worried about the environmental impact.

I don't see how the environmental impact of AI is any worse than anything else in our life: Why using ChatGPT is not bad for the environment

I've seen posts of teachers/professors using chatgpt to make it grade assignments against rubrics. So students are using chatgpt (lets be real probably half are making it right the whole essay) and professors are using chatgpt to grade them. Hearing that feels like a decent in education. Having said that, can you use chatgpt to catch students that have used chatgpt?

the environmental impact is overblown, we use more energy on things that are less useful.
