that’s not the same at all. why are you asking me something factual i half-remember from five years ago? just look it up because i’d also have to look it up to answer.
It sorta’ is similar in terms of epistemology too because when some people say “google it” they have blind trust in big corporation google/the internet contains all human knowledge the same way people are putting faith into chatgpt. It’s often times the same as if someone here asked if China’s governing party was marxist or not and being told to just “google it.” It shows an inability to grapple with ideas and a dependence on massive self-interested corporations for information.
I think it’s definitely a precursor to this chatgpt-as-mental-crutch trend we’re seeing.
It was already trending that way with “google it” being such a common response to questions
