I listen to podcasts sometimes. Every so often I catch a thought leader saying something flat-out wrong about a subject I know well. Recently someone claimed ChatGPT lowers cognition. The study they cited (which I’ve read) was flawed and designed to guarantee that result. When I raised this with the researchers, they publicly admitted they made that clear in the working paper. Yet the headline they pushed was essentially “ChatGPT makes you dummer.” And once I catch something like that from researcher or podcasters, I start questioning everything else I’ve taken from them at face value. And at that point it’s no longer entertaining. It’s unsettling.
