I recall in the mid-70s, when someone asked you what the source of your facts came from:
Saying "
I read it!" did not have the same impact as saying "
I saw it on JohnyCarson!" or "
I heard it on TV!"
Later, it became more believable if you replied with "
I got it from internet!"
Next, you could act authoritative by saying "
I did a GoogleSearch!"
Then, followed by the excuse that "
It was on TED talks!" or that "
It was on youtube"!
I am guessing anyone can get a better education [no matter how 'adultrated'] from ChatBots, if one was inquisitive enough.
Not even computer and/or social skills are really required.
