I can make a safe assumption before reading the article that ChatGPT didn't ruin the wedding, but rather somebody that was using ChatGPT ruined the wedding.

"blame the person, not the tools" doesn't work when the tools' marketing team is explicitly touting said tool as a panacea for all problems. on the micro scale, sure, the wedding planner is at fault, but if you zoom out even a tiny bit it's pretty obvious what enabled them to fuck up for as long and as hard as they did

do you think they ever got round to reading the article, or were they spent after coming up with “hmmmm I bet chatgpt didn’t somehow prompt itself” as if that were a mystery that needed solving

"ChatGPT is good, but only if no one in a position of authority uses it"
