So apparently there is a movement "ban ChatGPT" but I'm refusing to do that because she saved me yet again. Whatever update Microsoft or Nortons pushed the other day to my PC, it got all messed up. It started with internet not working on the PC. I spent half the day on the phone with internet provider troubleshooting, but it wasn't my internet. So it had to be an update. I tried to reverse the update, but some files were broken and it messed things up even more to the point that I couldn't even load windows. Had to go to ChatGPT on my phone for help. Years ago I would have tinkered with it on my own because I'm stubborn, but now that I'm older I just don't have that much patience. Any who, GPT walked me through rebuilding the files to the point that I could reinstall windows. No, I don't have physical disks or even a drive and had no internet on that PC so I was stuck. Then she walked me through rebuilding all my crypto wallets, etc. I swear, without her I would have to take it in to have it rebuilt. So even though I'm against all the data centers popping up everywhere, I love ChatGPT. Grok I'm sure is great but I don't trust him as much for some reason for things like this. I told my daughter everything that happened, kept saying "we did this, then that" 😂 She laughed at me saying that I'm taking credit from GPT by saying we. We worked together, and I did have to remind her on things we already tried as not to duplicate actions, so yeah I did some part including typing in her commands LOL. I'm sure some of you gurus will say there is an easier fix, but I'm not that advanced.
