Es gibt einen Blogpost von Eine Sammlung von unverminderter Haarspalterei zum Thema ChatGPT, der nebst den (uns vermutlich allen bekannten) Argumenten ĂŒber den Wert von AufsĂ€tzen und ChatGPTs BeschrĂ€nkungen hinsichtlich FachverstĂ€ndnis auch ein Beispiel liefert.

If you know nothing about either book, this answer almost sounds useful (it isnât) (Footnote: the description of The Limits of Empire in particular is poor and mostly misses the bookâs core argument [...]).
