The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they're using the AI tool again more.

Same tbh. I'm using bing search as it gives me relevant sources as well - to fact check the output. As a bonus, it leads me to websites that aren't seo spam. Google search is officially worse than Bing in my books.

Good on us for keeping up with the times, I say.

You can get chatGPT to write something with sources listed as well, just depends on how you prompt it. I do always proofread and edit its output though. Really is a super useful tool.

Doesn't it just hallucinate a bunch of URLs?

Couple times I've used it the sources were right.
