Although, I do feel that with the advent of the AI Revolution, that at least some part of the “deception “ is simply writers copy and pasting the first thing out of the AI with no effort to check it.
I've noticed a remarkable difference with the quality of output from ChatGPT from it's early days to now, but you are right about hallucinating. It's difficult to spot at times and depends on the task at hand. It's something I'm interested in delving into, so thanks for sharing your insights here.
And yes — what a difference a few months makes, right? The leap in quality from late 2023 to now is like going from dial-up to fiber. It’s wild. And I totally agree — hallucinations aren’t just a "ChatGPT problem." All the platforms play fast and loose with facts sometimes. It’s like they’re all straight-A students who occasionally make stuff up just to sound extra smart. 😅
That’s why I do my best to add real value in my newsletter — not just cool tricks, but thoughtful insights, grounded info, and stuff you can actually use. And when I see AI go off the rails? I try to call it out or course-correct right there. No sugarcoating.
Glad to know others are thinking deeply about this too. Feels like we’re all riding this crazy AI rollercoaster together — eyes wide open, hands in the air, and occasionally yelling, “Wait… did it just make that up?”
Thanks again for joining the conversation. I appreciate you!
Well. That was thorough. Thank you for the tips. I feel each section could be devoted to a whole entire post!
Loved how this made AI feel less intimidating and showed simple ways anyone can stay smart and in control!
Really appreciate the red flags and proactive solutions! This type of education is so needed as deception increases… it’s only gonna get trickier!
I completely agree 👍
