You absolutely nailed it. AI is merely a reflection of the user. It only follows commands. It doesn't "think". It can't "gaslight" (which I recently saw an article where someone was saying that ChatGPT is lying to and gaslighting everyone. AI can't innately "lie". People seem to have incorrect understanding of how this stuff works so they sell us fear and doom.

Great points all around and a wonderful template for people who are on the fence or don't understand why creatures can and should take advantage of AI in their toolbox.

Exactly. It's a very powerful tool that frequently amazes me with all it can do. But it's still just a tool, and like all tools, it requires a thinking user capable of using it wisely.
