I'm astonished on how much worth people seem to give this bot. It's a bullshit generator, based on other people's bullshit. The bot does not know right or wrong. The bot does not know what command line utilities are. It just predicts what answer you want. Based on answers already given before. Nothing more, nothing less.

Because people want to believe in the magical AI - they want something for nothing and have yet to grasp not only are they unable to change the immutable laws of the universe (something will not come for nothing), but they are willfully blind to the very real price they are about to pay...
And the price is...?
I guess the point is that it generates convincing and consistent texts. That's new and it's a building block for any futuristic AI that actually knows stuff: it also has to generate good text to communicate the knowledge.
