When asking ChatGPT about my name, it provided the following:
"...it seems like you may be referring to a private person rather than a widely known public figure. If that's the case, I wouldn't have any specific public information on him unless he has gained some public recognition for a particular achievement."
It shouldn't be used for looking up people that aren't celebrities or at least known for something.
The problem with that is that a guy who murdered his three kids is known for something.
At the most generous, maybe the professor in the article shares a name with the killer. Articles will include enough information to clear the professor (like maybe the killer has been in jail for a decade ). A LLM will weave together real information about the professor with the "fact" that he killed his kids.
ChatGPT shouldn't be used to find any real information, period.
“…it seems like you may be referring to a private person rather than a widely known public figure. If that’s the case, I wouldn’t have any specific public information on him unless he has gained some public recognition for a particular achievement.”
If you didn't specifically search for "Mr. ", that would be quite the sexist attitude to assume that person is a "him" ;)
PS: please don't use LLMs, they produce nothing of value and contribute to idiots being deceived.
