Like, just as with those who think that the information they ask ChatGPT and the like is true, how many of those who ask the AI for images will believe that they are a representation of reality to which the AI had access because of a supposed omniscience that these people falsely attribute to it?

Can you imagine? A person convinced that the fake images they create are real in some twisted way? I’m guessing it will be a very small number, but I doubt it will be zero.
