I don't know about you but I trust Wikipedia a lot more than I trust ChatGPT.

Plus, with Wikipedia, you can clearly see the sources or the lack of them. I tried asking ChatGPT for a source twice. One time, it gave a source. Another time, it gave the "as a language model I can't" spiel.

Wikipedia actually has a system for creating knowledge and verifying it, while ChatGPT was trained to convince humans.
