It's not lying about the fact that it lies, they have a disclaimer.

It's the user's responsibility to verify truth. This was trained on the internet and everyone knows not to believe everything you see on the internet. This isn't any different.

Was looking for the disclaimer comment, they do genuinely mention on their page it's not fit for consumption, although so do many services we often use.

And you don't see how this makes it useless as a paid product? Truth is the product. An AI chatbot that makes no pretensions to the truth might as well be a Markov chain for all the good it does me. Are people really so blinded by the song and dance of this mechanical monkey that they can't see through the ruse?

For many of us truth is not the product.

For a lot of people it's a faster way to google something you're familiar with, a more convenient stackoverflow.

When used right its hallucinations don't matter, and the user takes advantage of producing things quickly that would have been tedious to write manually. Like one-off shell scripts.

If your use case necessitates truth then I see why you don't think it's worth paying for.

However this is the only digital product I'm paying a subscription for. It's faster than googling and trudging between useless results, ads, and useless blog content, so it's worth every cent.
