Is Chat GPT actually worth the effort? (alien.top)

I am what is known as an early adopter, I try all the new shit, I was on Twitter early and got banned for being a Nazi or something when if you said anything anyone disagreed with you were a fascist.
Chat GPT is something that I have been playing with, 3.5 is as dumb as a plank, If OpenAI wanted to convince me that upgrading to 4 was a good idea they would have made 3.5 interesting enough that it was useful for more than creating outlines.
Here are my concerns.
Chat GPT cannot count, it cannot follow instructions and rehashes the same content in numerous areas, I tried writing blogs about photography, web development, carpentry and more. As a brainstorming device it's good, to get an outline it's accep[table, but as far as trusting it with creating original content that needs as much effort to edit and fact check as it would take me to do it from scratch anyway.
In the ever changing, fast paced world yadda yadda is one of it's gotos. I wonder how many people are posting exactly the same AI generated shite, because they can't be arsed to actually check it.
IT's a boon for the spam content creator, but for the person serious about his business< I am not convinced, Convince me.

Here is how ChatGPT answered your question: :)

It's understandable that you have reservations about the utility of ChatGPT, especially when it comes to creating original and trustworthy content. While ChatGPT can be a valuable tool for brainstorming and generating ideas, it does have limitations, and it's important to consider these limitations when deciding whether to use it for specific purposes. Here are some points to consider:
Understanding Limitations:
ChatGPT is not infallible, and it may not always produce accurate or reliable information. It's crucial to recognize that the model generates responses based on patterns it learned during training and may not have up-to-date or real-world knowledge.
Fact-Checking and Editing:
As you've observed, the content generated by ChatGPT may require thorough fact-checking and editing. It's a tool that can assist in generating ideas and outlines, but relying on it without careful review can lead to inaccuracies.
Content Uniqueness:
If uniqueness and originality are critical for your content, relying solely on ChatGPT may not be sufficient. While it can help with brainstorming, it may not consistently produce content that stands out from what others might generate using the same tool.
Spam and Repetition:
Your concern about potential repetition in AI-generated content is valid. It's possible that multiple users may end up with similar or identical content, especially if they are asking similar questions or requesting information on popular topics.
AI as a Supplement, Not a Replacement:
Think of ChatGPT as a supplement to your creative process rather than a replacement. It can be a useful tool for generating ideas, but the final responsibility for crafting high-quality, accurate content lies with the user.
GPT-4 Improvements:
It's worth noting that newer iterations of models, like GPT-4, may address some of the limitations you've identified. OpenAI continues to refine its models, and future versions may offer improvements in accuracy, coherence, and understanding of context.
Use in Specific Scenarios:
Consider using ChatGPT in specific scenarios where its strengths can be maximized, such as brainstorming, idea generation, or creating outlines. For critical and fact-intensive content, you may still want to rely on your own expertise and thorough research.
Ultimately, the decision to use ChatGPT or similar tools depends on your specific needs, preferences, and the nature of the content you're creating. It's a powerful tool, but it's most effective when used with a critical eye and in conjunction with human oversight. If you find that it doesn't align with your workflow or doesn't provide sufficient value, it's entirely reasonable to reassess its role in your creative process.
