I think having that kind of validation at your fingertips, whenever you want, is worse. At least people, even people deep in the claws of a conspiracy, can disagree with each other. At least they know what they are saying. The AI always says what the user wants to hear and expects to hear. Though I can see how that distinction may matter little to some, I just think ChatGPT has advantages that are worse than what a forum could do.

Sure. But on the flip side, you can ask it the opposite question (tell me the issues with ) and it'll do that as well, and you're not going to get that from a conspiracy theory forum.
