Hi MNHQ
I was just on a thread about a wounded toddler in Gaza but there was a warning from a poster that it would soon be deleted, then lo and behold it was gone. Can you explain which guidelines were breached, as I'm mystified. It was just posters commenting on a story that's on Sky News and elsewhere.

I don’t know really. Either way it doesn’t prove the point. ChatGPT is a useful tool but all it does is pull data from various web sources. It’s doesn’t actually know anything.

Well of course it doesnt 'know' anything!!!

What a bizarre thing to say, its not a sentient being. Its an information gathering tool is all. Just like the rest of the internet.

I just checked something on it and it was completely factually wrong, so that’s not a good sign!

They hallucinate frequently

You have to tell it off and tell it not to make things up!!

I asked it about an exam I’m due to take (internationally recognised) - I gave it the exam reference and it claimed it was the lower level

I know that. I’m trying to point that out to all the idiots who use it to try and prove some kind of point.

What point was I trying to prove?

Quoting Chat GPT is foolish at best.
ChatGPT is a useful tool

Make up your mind @WonderfulSmith

Better to be safe than sued will be the order of the day, particularly when the new owners take over. I’m sure all sorts of topics and conversations will be sanitised and if people don’t like it then they can disappear off to Reddit.

AI comes with the disclaimer that it makes mistakes, so it's up to the user to further query any answers they think are inaccurate. What I like about ChatGPT is that it also provides the sources of its information, so the user can scrutinise them too.

I can't wait to try OpenClaw.
