And can certainly imagine cases where I would ask it for things and then check them. (I've taken to running the assignments I give through it just to see what it gets right and wrong).But I have no mercy for the author of a paper sent to a journal I edit for if it has hallucinated references. Or for a PhD student who asks AI for a short summary of a paper I told them to read and figure out and ask me about if they get stuck, and then thinks reading the summary is enough.-----It feels kind of like watching a pitcher go to the batting cages to get better.  (As opposed to a batter going to them).----Also not eager to see what the influx of data centers do to our state's power costs and water supplies.</blockquote>
