When discussing a topic online, I first ask ChatGPT for validation

When discussing a topic online, I first ask ChatGPT for validation, especially if I'm disagreeing with someone. I’ll have a trial debate with ChatGPT to avoid saying something too dumb and to explore potential counter-arguments upfront.

To be fair, I usually don't ask ChatGPT for the arguments themselves; it’s more of a refinement strategy.

Is this the social media equivalent of using AI to cheat in chess?

to avoid saying something too dumb

There’s nothing wrong with learning something during the course of a discussion

That's a good point. Some are nice and reward engagement with constructive feedback

Happy lemmy cake day!
