There really should be some law or adage coined for this by now.

No one wants to hear GPT's opinion because it doesn't have one.




>No one wants to hear GPT's opinion because it doesn't have one.

google doesn't have an opinion either when taking any search result at large. And that's all ChatGPT is doing here.


Nah, GPT's output can be very valuable and insightful. But you don't get it with a low effort "please summarize the key points of the text below\n\n{paste some text here}".

I propose the rule to be what it is already: put some effort into your comment, make it add something instead of just taking space and attention. This works for human and GPT and human/GPT ensemble commentary. And the prescription for low-effort spam? Downvote and flag.


I do. Sometimes.
