This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved.

It's astonishing how snooty #medlibs get about newcomers to the profession.
Y'all are part of the problem for recruiting and retaining new people to the specialty. At least as big a part as the structure of LIS education.
(This is a sub-post of some LinkedIn posts I'm seeing today.)
