At work, I use the paid version of chatgpt, and recently someone very close to me asked if I could share my account with them. But I just couldn’t do it. It felt too personal, even though I have no problem sharing passwords for my phone, laptop, or other apps. It reminded me of a dystopian novel called Pandem. In the story, a being called Pandem comes to Earth and talks to people through a ‘voice from above.’ It answers their questions, helps them in difficult times, and seems very much like God knowing everything and almost all-powerful. I’ve been catching myself thinking more and more about the parallels between that story and gpt. It’s like having a personal dialogue with something that always knows more than you do and answers all the questions you have

It probably also depends on how often you use the chat and your field of work For me gpt makes life easier by providing clear structuring, whereas good specialists don’t always explain things in an accessible way - what’s simple for them can be confusing for others
