Sign of the times: We are now adding software features not because we need or want them – but because ChatGPT hallucinated them and gets its users to request them.
Turns out ChatGPT is telling people to go to Soundslice, create an account and import ASCII tab in order to hear the audio playback. So that explains it! […] Problem is, we didn't actually have that feature. We've never supported ASCII tab; ChatGPT was outright lying to people. And making us look bad in the process, setting false expectations about our service. […] We ended up deciding: what the heck, we might as well meet the market demand. So we put together a bespoke ASCII tab importer.[…] To my knowledge, this is the first case of a company developing a feature because ChatGPT is incorrectly telling people it exists.
