My father insists on a version of past events that is not true, where he supposedly helped me pay off debt when in reality I paid it off by working FOR YEARS. He doesn’t say it as something he’s proud of, but something I owe him and haven’t “thanked” him for (?). He is extremely stubborn and old enough to definitely not remember things well.
He does this kind of thing with my siblings as well and it’s come to the point where we feel that all we really were for our father was a money burden, be it true or not that he helped us financially at some point. How can I come to terms with the fact that he’s not gonna acknowledge the truth no matter how many times I explain it to him, despite the anger and frustration I feel towards him for claiming something he actually DIDN’T do for his kid while minimizing my own work and effort?

    please double-check chatgpt’s answers before posting them as facts. chatgpt does not know what it is saying, and often hallucinates false information.

    its good for making nicely-written texts, not for researching anything important

      1. How do you know whether I did or didn’t double check if I didn’t say whether I did or not?

      2. The chatgpt piece just is basically an add-on to what my main point was and isn’t really super important… For anyone that really truly cared to dig into it, they’re free to research on their own.

        1. i never claimed whether u double-checked or not.

        2. i know, but still i think its important not to make it seem like posting chatgpt responses without oversight is okay.

        if u normalize listening to ai hallucinations in any situation, people (especially tech-illiterate people) are going to replicate that behaviour in more important situations.
