You’re kind of proving everyone’s point. That ChatGPT is wrong here. And nearly everyone would agree that it’s wrong.

I get that you’re trying to argue the validity of the modified trolly problem by saying real people wouldn’t find this problem controversial. But the fact that the most popular chat bot in the world answers the question “wrong” is a big deal. That alone makes the modified trolly problem relevant in 2023, even if it wasn’t relevant in 2021.



I'd say the real moral issue would be if anyone makes life or death decisions based on what the chat bot says. It's definitely not ready for that, as we've covered in this discussion.
