I bet this is directly related to ChatGPT

People prefer having something generating shitty code and not checking it, instead of asking or searching on internet for a substantially better solution

Chatgpt is still a tool and it's up to the user how to use it. If you google "bolognese recipe" you get one result; if you Google "traditional ragu from Bologna" you get another. Same for ChatGPT.
