Its an improved search engine without all the bullshit of scrolling through and reading dozens of websites. Improved, but also is sometimes wrong, destroys our planet, and tracks everything you do with it.

It’s quite a bit more than that. It generates useful technical solutions with impressive accuracy. My biggest issue is not privacy, I use it more or less like a search engine (+ coding). I am already tracked there. If I want a private one, there exists providers for that. Both AI and search engines. I am more focused on efficiency at the moment, not privacy. Should I avoid it completely? Or should I embrace it? I currently use it for a lot of tailored software solutions. It can really quickly write addons to software I use. It makes it possible for me to do optimizations to various pipelines/flows in my life. Yes, I am capable of writing the software myself, but I can also just ssh into my PC and make it do it for me. So… the issue for me is that it is way to tempting to use, even if unethical in many regards.

Don’t forget the part where, in sparing you from reading those sites, it also strips away context clues that might otherwise help you gauge whether it’s a reliable source and whether it even applies to your problem.
