100% correct. The IRC channel I hang out in has a bot utilizing ChatGPT and it does a summary of the most recent conversations when someone joins.

Sometimes, it does a great job! It impresses me how well it's able to summarize multiple ongoing conversations in a succinct way.

...and often times, it gets shit quite wrong. Not the actual topics, those it's good at -- but it is outright terrible at correctly indicating who actually said what.

Granted this is all to be expected -- it's an LLM, not really AI.
