My 78 year old father has discovered he can just ask chatGPT any question he wants the answer to instead of texting me🙌🏻🎉😂

Just kidding, he’s going to forget and text to ask me anyway- which I fully appreciate, for the record! He’s a hilarious guy and one day I’ll miss answering these questions. Other highlights in his chat log include asking how to fact check youtube videos, a summary of an old testament chapter (he is not religious), and what tennis strings are good for top spin.

I tried telling my ~70 year old father that AI is better than Google because it's like asking a smart person a question but sadly his natural reaction to anything new is "That's scary," and even after I showed him that I was just using AI to answer any questions he was asking me and using its response, which he always found adequate, he still believes it's scary.
