In response to a previous question of mine, you said this:
If the people find you have an intent -- conscious or otherwise -- to obfuscate sources, and this fact is not conveyed in a transparent manner to the end user, this is really no different at all from if you yourself had such intent, yes?
You, ChatGPT, may not have a conscious intent to obfuscate sources or to appear more human or authoritative, but surely you admit that the human beings who designed you (and are now, and who will continue to profit from you as more and more people are impressed by your technology) might have a vested interest in doing so, yes?As an AI language model, I do not have a conscious intent to obfuscate sources or appear more human or authoritative. My programming is designed to provide helpful and informative responses that are based on a vast amount of textual data from various sources, and I strive to do so in a manner that is concise, clear, and easy to understand.

You say that you rely on "trusted and credible" sources, but how do we, the end users, know that your sources are "trusted" and "credible" if you never reveal those sources to us? Are we just supposed to take your word for it?Regarding sources, while I understand that specific sources or links can be helpful for users to verify information, it is not always possible for me to provide them due to the nature of my programming and how my responses are generated. However, I do rely on trusted and credible sources to provide the information I present, and I am continually working to improve the accuracy and quality of my responses.
