A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

With the creation and use of ChatGPT and Bard, I bet ELI5 community and subreddit have had less posts, because people can just ask them instead. (lemmy.world)

I don't get why people trust their answers so much. They lie. Confidently. Constantly.

I usually ask the GPT, then look up the topic myself based on terms and keywords that were mentioned

No! You’re meant to blindly trust every source of information you read, AI or not.

I don't get why people completely disregard their usefulness because of that. Just don't trust anything they say until you verify it. It's still useful for exploration or to get enough of a grasp of something that you can figure it out on your own.
