Reply to comment by SeaBearsFoam in I asked ChatGPT if it is sentient, and I can't really argue with its point by wtfcommittee

True.

It also occurred to me, though, that this might actually be what a high school teacher would say about chatGPT. They might get it this wrong.

I wonder if assigning the person who's doing the explaining in this situation to be someone with no special knowledge or expertise in the field makes it more likely to get things like this wrong.

I think the likelihood of the ChatGPT emulating both the style and accuracy of a highschool teacher is a bit beyond scope.

It seems very likely the basis for this reply literally comes from people writing their own opinions on this question. Given the gulf between what it’s actually doing and what someone would assume is happening if they have no interest in AI etc, you could see them matter-of-factly asserting these points, which in turn means chatGPT will.
