This is true and well-stated. Mainly what I wish people would understand is there are current appropriate uses, like 'rewrite my marketing email', but generating information that could result in great harm if inaccurate is an inappropriate use. It's all about the specific model, though - if you had a ChatGPT system trained extensively on medical information, it would result in greater accuracy, but still the information would need expert human review before any decision were made. Mainly I wish the media had been more responsible and accurate in portraying these systems to the public.
