OpenAI CEO Sam Altman expressed surprise at how much people trust ChatGPT, despite its tendency to “hallucinate” or generate false information.
Speaking on OpenAI’s new podcast, he praised the tool’s usefulness—even for parenting help—but warned against relying on it in critical areas like health or law.
Altman also discussed new features like memory and ad-based models, acknowledging the privacy and trust concerns they raise.
His key message: AI is powerful, but users should stay cautious and critical.
