If you have actual feedback on the points go ahead. If you even opened the link, It contains sources. What I wrote, I wrote from memory as I've read plenty of articles and first-party takes while fighting stupid misinformation on this specific issue so much, and just added the fact check as I think that is doing a lot more than 90% of commenters.

Replying (trolling?) in the lines of just "lol AI stupid" isn't helpful or aiming towards anyone being better informed.

Note I'm not saying it's wrong, just that it's not considered anywhere reliable enough for a "fact check". At best it's "some sources that chatgpt turned up that I have to manually check myself". I'll admit that human written "fact checks" aren't exactly foolproof either (eg. the infamous "Clinton acid washed her servers" fact check), but at least I can be reasonably sure that it doesn't contain entirely made up sources.

If you've personally verified the claims and sources there, then feel free to make the claims yourself, citing the sources.

ChatGPT may be a good tool for you to find information to discuss here, but it is not a good tool to replace discussion here.

You didn't write it, tell me why I should read it?

ChatGPT is not a source. You’re just overwhelming the conversation with slop and then throwing up your hands and saying, “You figure out if it’s true!”

Not cool and not a way to treat your peers.

"Sources". It's low quality slop that requires validation.
