News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Devils advocate...
It is a tool, it does what you tell it to, or what you encourage it to do. People use it as an echo chamber or escapism. Majority of population is fkin dumb. Critical thinking is not something everybody has, and when you give them such tools like ChatGPT, it will "break them". This is just natural selection, but modern-day kind.
It is a tool, but a lot of the mass public is too tech illiterate to understand what it's not. I've had to talk away friends from using it for legal advice
I agree. This is what happens, when society has "warning" labels on everything. We are slowly being dumbed down into not thinking about things rationally.
It is a tool, made by company led by a man who prioritizes profits over safety.
Nuclear fission was discovered by people who had best interests of humanity in their mind, only for it to be later weaponized. Tool (no matter the manufacturer) is used by YOU. How you use it, or if you even use it at all, is entirely up to you. Stop shifting the responsibility, when its very clear who is to blame (people who believe BS on the internet or what echo-chambered chatbot gives them).
You could say this about anything bad with some good uses.
"Drugs are just a tool… People are too dumb and use it wrong, they deserve the cancers!"
but peoples really using drugs as pain killer or for sleeping while operation
Your logic is flawed and overly simplified. Yes, both drugs and ChatGPT are tools, but the comparison is absurd. With drugs, their effect are well-understood, regulated, and predictable. ChatGPT is different. It adapts entirely to your input and intentions. If someone uses it as an echo chamber or blindly trusts it, that’s a user issue, not a tool failure. Critical thinking is essential, but I understand how many people lack it in the "social media" era we live in.
