But it's really good in faking knowledge. Very often it sounds legit, even though it's just some made up bs. You read it, it's wrong, but it still sounds like it's legit. Read about a judge or lawyer using it to provide old cases as precedent and CGPT made up some old case and case numbers. Still it was used in court till it turned out such cases never existed.

Yes, I am aware. I said:

ChatGPT is good when I’m brainstorming random ideas - it’s important to bear in mind that it makes crap up, but sometimes that’s what I’m after.

Sometimes I want it to be making stuff up that sounds legit, that's exactly what I'm after. The legitness is the important part, the accuracy is secondary. Sometimes I provide it with all the facts up front and just want it to rewrite them for me.

Don't use it in court. That's not what it's for. It's for other things.
