This is the thing. ChatGPT shouldn't be that confident in its wording IMO.. If it just said "according to me" instead of stating things as fact, people would have much less problems with it.

We know this wording is just show but people still get swayed by it and believe it must be true.

Yeah and it can actually reflect on itself and its mistakes when prompted, so I can see a fix like this coming soon. Sometimes just asking, Are you sure? is enough for it to apologize and say a part of its answer wasn't based in known fact.

Also another point while I'm here: Many many humans I've met are often confident when incorrect as well and can and will bullshit an answer when it suits their comfort.

But no one asserts the existence of those people will forever change society.
