No, the crucial thing is that a good human will tell you if they don't know something, or if they are simply unsure.

It's adorable seeing this kind of critique in the context of HN, I wonder how many folk knew my heavily upvoted comment above ("For 10 billion+ ...") was from someone who has only been looking at this stuff for a few weeks. ChatGPT is no better or worse than any consultant I've ever met (including myself), or most of the commenters you find here every single day.

It's adorable that you think people assume HN comments are factually correct. I read everything here with extreme skepticism, because I know this is all coming from flawed humans. An computer system giving authoritative text and insisting it is 100% correct is a different story.

Every bit of text from a computer system also comes from flawed humans.
