But this person says they want to refute it in every situation.
Some people seem to make a hobby of refuting the output of others. So no, I don’t trust the implication that if somebody spends time refuting it that it must be worth refuting.
In my experience (with both people-output and ChatGPT-output) my goal is to not refute anything unless it absolutely positively must be refuted. If it’s a low-stakes situation where another person has an idea that seems like it might/will probably work, let them go nuts and give it a shot. I’ll offer quick feedback or guiding questions but I have 0 interest in refuting it even if I think there’s a chance it’ll go wrong. They can learn by doing.
