It took quite a bit of digging through the replies and quote tweets to understand what Thorp is and isn't saying here, but people dunking by saying gpt isn't a search engine have misunderstood. He's saying he used gpt to retrieve links to specific references he was previously familiar with.
Holden ThorpHi, this is Holden emerging from my Bluesky hiatus to tell everyone that when checking the links in the piece, I used ChatGPT as my search engine (does anyone use Google anymore?). The piece was written by me and edited by humans. So all the links were checked by me and again by our copyeditors.
