   People: OH MY GOD you can't use wikipedia because ANYONE can just EDIT and write WHATEVER!

   The same people 20 years later: Oh I LOVE chatgpt, I can ask it anything and it always has an answer!

     @kly Because what they really love is authority.

     Wikipedia is bad because "those people" could be making changes to it.

     ChatGPT is good because it says what its capitalist masters taught it to say.

     @kly Same reason they went from "you can't trust what you read on the internet" (because it's a bunch of queers and hackers and anarchists) to "it's true because I heard it on Facebook" (because it's a bunch of conspiracy theorist boomers).
