I mean... A statement can be both a conclusion and an argument... But sure.

You hate it because it makes laziness easier...? It is literally the whole season why technology and science exist: To make things easier. Laziness is your boss' way of making you feel bad for not working more.

'its not art." But here it is making you talk about it and feel emotions.

"35 years ago" Sure buddy, AOL must have been terrible for you.

Sure they are buddy. Perfect security. Why would anyone think otherwise?

Literal trash. And I like AIs.

Correct, but you exist for sure, because you are hearing that voice, whatever it actually is. Even if it is a hallucination, it is you perceiving it. So at least of your own existence, you can be sure.

This is a great philosophical question, people have been asking themselves this for a very long time. Some have answers: You may have heard "Cogito ergo sum.", by Rene Descartes. The context of this quote is that it is a logical conclusion, after the border began purposefully trying to show what really REALLY exists, as he chose to doubt about the existence of everything.

After a lot of thinking and writing he came to the conclusion that there is no way for you to know that your life isn't just a hallucination, projected unto your brain by a daemon, however, there is one thing you CAN be sure of: If you are asking yourself these questions, you are thinking, that is undeniable you 100% experience your thoughts first hand, and therefore it is safe to say that because you can think, you can be sure you exist. Cogito, ergo sum. (I think, therefore I am)

Yep, this is a very good explanation. Seeing ChatGPT "talk" is immediately associated with sentience, because for your entire life, and millions of years of evolution, apeech was in 99.9% of cases, a sign of aentience. So your brain doesn't even consider it a question, until you consciously stop to think about it.

An interesting way to antromorphizise GPT that's still technically correct is to think of it as having essentially perfect memory. So it doesn't know how to talk, but it has seen so many conversations (literal trillions) that it can recognize the patterns that make up speech and simply "remember" what the most likely combination of words is, given the context, with zero actual "understanding" of language. (Human trainers then fine-tune these guesses to give you the ChatGPT experience)
