<p>it's like giving me an lmgtfy.com link for something i already (obviously) tried searching for, except worse, because google is at least sometimes right</p>
<p>if I ask a question and your answer includes, in any part of it, "I asked ChatGPT" then not only will I block you but I will make sure to make an example of you so that others don't do it again. i will probably also tell you to go fuck yourself first</p><p>re: <a href="https://mastodon.social/@jordan@sometimes.social/112836483613685056" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.social/@jordan@someti</span><span class="invisible">mes.social/112836483613685056</span></a></p>
