I’ve learned from gpt. Did it teach me? In the same way books teach me things, yes, it did. I could have learned the same things on my own with much more reading, but you don’t always know what to read when working on a problem. Gpt has read everything, and can tell you answers to questions you don’t even know to ask. Like “how do the complete works of two authors (I’ve never read) relate?” Sure it gives a nonsensical answer quite often, but that doesn’t really matter. I can verify what I need to verify on my own, just as I would any other unreliable source of information (like CNN, aljazeera, etc…)
