what if gpt starts telling drunk me to do things? how long would it take for me to notice? I'm super awake again now, thanks
Its a roundabout way of writing "its really shit for this usecase and people that actively try to use it that way quickly find that out"
Imagine discussing your emotions with a computer, LOL. Nerds!
