ChatGPT = Cunningham bait

I don't see anything wrong with GPT's answer other than pedantic quibbling. I just don't like it because I don't want to share this space with non-humans.
What does that mean?

Cunningham's Law: Post something wrong online so you can get a correct answer.

Half the ChatGPT answers on here seem to be wrong in obvious ways or, worse, subtle but critical ways. When people post them they get downvoted, and other people chime in with "Why are you trusting a fabulist like ChatGPT instead of going to actual resources with definitions and explanations that aren't garbage? Here's what it actually is..."

I wonder if it would create a singularity in spacetime by posting the GPT answer to "what is cunningham's law" here?
Worked for me :<
