I think what’s worth mentioning is that for people who grew up with google, schools already were having a bit of a panic with resources like wolfram alpha and Wikipedia. For this cohort of users, myself included, the idea of fact checking ”found” material and weaving it into a proper answer is very familiar.

With this view, I think chatGPT is less of a novel UX shift than an accelerant on an existing one.

I think it proves the age old belief that as technology reaches maturity it loses its fancy monikers and we will probably just look at this as “very good, very specific, google” one day

Of course, even back in the day, I'm sure many a school report cribbed heavily from Encyclopedia Brittanica etc.
