ChatGPT for the win? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi guys, I recently installed Linux mint and like any other noob I had a lot of questions and problems right of the bat and I found that ChatGPT surprisingly gets most of them right on and I yet to see a totally wrong answer from it so yeah if you are on the fence about Linux give it a try but try to verify the answers you get it not gonna be 100% accurate.

Thanks I have already known about mint forum and archwiki and I think I asked about stuff here atleast afew time before and got pretty good insight from you guys (which I'm thankful for) but I can't ask around every single simple problem I face with also I should have added that I don't blindly follow anything ChatGPT or any AI spits out and you're absolutely right some of solutions ChatGPT suggests are outdated (I did manual partitioning and it tried to convince me that I need a swap partition which I realized nobody is doing nowadays) but I should say many of not too complicated stuff it gets right too it's just tool like everything else you should be aware of it's shortcomings as well as advantages. Hope that made sense edit: typo
