Because you can be that douche that pipes up in a group to say “Well, according to Perplexity…” and genuinely think that makes you sound smart while everyone else just waits for you to stop talking.
At least some of the people I’ve met who like these kinds of things are… let’s just say very gullible when it comes to tech hype. There’s overlap with NFT weirdos and Musk fans (at least until that became gauche). They want the hype to be real so bad that they convince themselves that it is even as their apes disappear left and right.
Also some of them are CEOs who are all about “personal optimization”, egotistical blowhards who are convinced their time is special and they will operate at another level entirely if they get ChatGPT to summarize every email they receive and write every email they send.
holy shit lmao
on what earth is this kind of thing useful in any way, why are ai bros like this
