I’d imagine he thinks that other evil rich people and sycophants whose immoral compasses are aligned are his friends, but in reality they’re around because it benefits them (or they think it does), and they’d stab him in the back as soon as it benefits them. (It’s just that so far it hasn’t benefited their morally corrupt causes yet.) So people like the deceased Epstein, and Canadian traitors Kevin O’Leary and Gretzky. AB Premier Danielle Smith wouldn’t even be an afterthought of a “friend” in this context, but she’s trying so desperately hard to be accepted, it’s pathetic.
I can give a real-life answer to that. I was working on an assignment where keyword searching journal databases was not really helping because the while the primary keywords have specific meanings in the context I was intending, the words themselves have different meanings and uses. So I had to weed through a ton of articles in order to get just a few useful ones. Asking ChatGPT to give me 10 peer-reviewed journal articles about X and Y topic would return maybe three or four real articles, but it took me a lot less time to identify the three real ones from a set of 10 compared to locating three on-topic articles from, say, 100 results.
The above was using the public version of ChatGPT. Partway through the semester, my school got ChatGPT Edu. Interestingly, the Edu version, given the same prompt, did not return fake articles, but it included somewhat related, but not-relevant ones. In either case (public or Edu), I still had to check all 10 results, but it was still less time consuming than trying to search on my own.
