Personally having been a big fan of GPT-3, I was quite against ChatGPT because of this.
Completion models are obviously wrong very often. Instruct model was kinda ok, but you know it's a dumb machine.
Chat was a bit of an uncanny valley. I treated the instruct model like a child, but chat felt like having a conversation with someone of 80 IQ. It felt frustrating, and you ended up going "no no no, what I meant WAS ..." It felt like dealing with an incompetent colleague.
But I guess there's lots of views on it. Some expected it to be an oracle, even a god. Some treated it like Stack Overflow, then got frustrated that it was giving poor quality answers to poor quality questions. Some were just abusive to it. I suppose it's a mirror in a sense.
