Just imagine how many not so obvious, or nuanced 'facts' are being misrepresented. Right there, under billions of searches.
There will be 'fixes' for this, but it's never been easier to shape 'the truth' and public opinion.
It's worse. So much worse. Now ChatGPT will have a human voice with simulated emotions that sounds eminently trustworthy and legitimately intelligent. The rest will follow quickly.
People will be far more convinced of lies being told by something that sounds like a human being sincere. People will also start believing it really is alive.
Inb4 summaries and opinion pieces start including phrases like "think of the children", "may lead to dire consequenses" and "should concern everybody"
"A human being sincere" is a nice little garden-path sentence :)
My point is that people will trust something that what sounds like it is being said sincerely by a living person more than they will regular text results a lot of the time because the "living person" sounds like they have emotions, which makes them sound like a member of our species, which makes them sound more trustworthy.
There's a reason why predators sometimes disguise themselves, or part of themselves, as their prey. The anglerfish wouldn't be as successful without that little light telling nearby fish "mate with me."
I didn't make any comment about what you're saying, I saw your point and had nothing to add.
A garden path sentence is one where you read it wrong the first time around and have to backtrack to understand it, for example: the old man the boat.
"a human being" is normally a noun, but then it turns out "being" is actually a verb.
