If it’s something serious, yes. Like fixing something. I also use it as an idea generator. I needed to figure out why my toilet wasn’t flushing. It suggested the flapper. So then I went to YouTube and looked up a video on how to install it once it pointed me in a direction.

You can actually ask for its sources now and fact check yourself. But just like anything you read online, use common sense. I’d see those same results in a Google search too.

Yeah I do realize the inevitable problem when their sources dry up because no one is communicating anymore but for the quick questions about how something works in the world it’s extremely convenient. I’d just be asking Google anyway.

Participation in what? A quick search on how to fix my toilet and how a toilet works. You think I was going to sign up for a toilet message board and chat?

Is that supposed to be they watch videos in vertical…or they get off on watching vertical videos?

“Oh yeah, tilt that camera. Tilt it harder. There we go. Oh yeah! It’s standing straight up.”

I’m already using ChatGPT to replace 80% of my Google searches. No sponsored bullshit. Yet.
