    ChatGPT didn’t nearly destroy her wedding, her lousy wedding planner did. Also whats she got against capital letters?

      Yea yea guns don’t kill people, bullet impacts kill people. Dishonesty and incompetence are nothing new, but you may note that the wedding planner’s unfounded confidence in ChatGPT exacerbated the problem in a novel way. Why did the planner trust the bogus information about Vegas wedding officiants? Is someone maybe presenting these LLM bots as an appropriate tool for looking up such information?

        Yes, even some influential people at my employer have started to peddle the idea that only “old-fashioned” people are still using Google, while all the forward-thinking people are prompting an AI. For this reason alone, I think that negative examples like this one deserve a lot more attention.
