Speak for yourself...
“Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”
Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

In the past I would have answered the question "What is happening in the opera Orfeo when Gluck’s melodie is played"? with a number of expletives, and quite possibly a reference to both the questioner's parentage and sexuality.
Now, I've got AI to help me.
Thanks a bunch, AI. You've made me a better person.

Sure. We’re all worse at making our own clothes, growing our own food, and building our own houses.
Thank god (figuratively).

So thinking for yourself is one of those things, eh?

The question I posed can’t be derived from principles, thinking wouldn’t solve it.
They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

So would you agree that there are instances in which using this technology creates too much of a crutch for people? Because your examples seem to suggest otherwise.
(And not for nothing, you know the only reason you were able to get an answer to your question from ChatGPT is because OpenAI lied about being a research venture, right?)

Elon Musk is suing OpenAI, the makers of ChatGPT, arguing it has breached the principles he agreed to when he helped found it in 2015.
The lawsuit - which has also been filed against OpenAI boss Sam Altman - says the firm has departed from its original non-profit, open source mission.
It says instead of trying to "benefit humanity" - as it was set up to do - it is focusing on "maximising profits" for major investor Microsoft.
OpenAI has been approached for comment.
The firm was created with the intention of building what's known as artificial general intelligence (AGI) - AI that can perform any task a human being is capable of.
It was also set up as a not-for-profit company, meaning it would not aim to make money.
The lawsuit, which has been filed in San Francisco, states it was under these conditions, that Mr Musk agreed to found OpenAI, along with Mr Altman and co-founder Greg Brockman.
He left three years later.
"This case is filed to compel OpenAI to adhere to the Founding Agreement and return to its mission to develop AGI for the benefit of humanity, not to personally benefit the individual Defendants and the largest technology company in the world," the lawsuit says. -
By 2026, traditional search engine volume will drop 25%, with search marketing losing market share to AI chatbots and other virtual agents, according to Gartner, Inc.
“Organic and paid search are vital channels for tech marketers seeking to reach awareness and demand generation goals,” said Alan Antin, Vice President Analyst at Gartner. “Generative AI (GenAI) solutions are becoming substitute answer engines, replacing user queries that previously may have been executed in traditional search engines. This will force companies to rethink their marketing channels strategy as GenAI becomes more embedded across all aspects of the enterprise.”
Quality and Authenticity Will Be Focal Points as Virtual Agents Replace Traditional Search
With GenAI driving down the cost of producing content, there is an impact around activities including keyword strategy and website domain authority scoring. Search engine algorithms will further value the quality of content to offset the sheer amount of AI-generated content, as content utility and quality still reigns supreme for success in organic search results.
There will also be a greater emphasis placed on watermarking and other means to authenticate high-value content. Government regulations across the globe are already holding companies accountable as they begin to require the identification of marketing content assets that AI creates. This will likely play a role in how search engines will display such digital content.
“Companies will need to focus on producing unique content that is useful to customers and prospective customers,” said Antin. “Content should continue to demonstrate search quality-rater elements such as expertise, experience, authoritativeness and trustworthiness.”

Well, actually I should not have said "replace internet search" but "replace web browsing". People will get their information directly from ChatGPT and not bother to look at other places. Why use Wikipedia, or look at a complicated paper, or look at a lengthy Youtube video, when you can get the information you want way more efficiently using ChatGPT?
The influence these algorithms can have will make the Ministry of Truth look like a joke in comparison. You want to rewrite history or, for that matter, the present? Takes only a few keystrokes.
Getting to the truth will be harder than convincing ChatGPT to draw an image of boobs (oh yes, I tried...).

No surprise I dont think.
Both OpenAI and Google turned to transcribing YouTube videos to further train their AI models, which may violate creators' copyrights, the New York Times reports. The report details how the two tech giants, along with Meta, cut corners to access as much data as possible to train their AI models.
According to the report, OpenAI used Whisper, a speech recognition tool, to transcribe more than one million hours of YouTube videos. It then fed the transcripts into GPT-4, the powerful AI system that the latest model of ChatGPT's chatbot runs on. Google, which owns YouTube, also transcribed YouTube videos to train its AI models.
The transcription of videos by both companies may infringe on creator's copyrights to their videos. Other uses of creator content to train AI has prompted copyright and licensing lawsuits.
OpenAI's use of YouTube videos also may violate Google's rules, which prohibits the use of its videos for "independent" applications and "automated means (such as robots, botnets or scrapers)" of accessing its videos.
and
...the report alleges that people at Google knew about OpenAI's unauthorized use of YouTube videos and neglected to take action because it was doing the same thing.
