I’ve been feeling conflicted about this so I would like a judgement. Last night my husband logged me into his chatgpt account because I needed help with a presentation and he has an account that he uses for his work too. He logged me in and opened a new chat for me.
When I was done using it he wasn’t in the room and the other tabs had some compelling titles so I clicked on them. There were some stories that he wrote, some fanfiction and period stories. Anyway later in the night I told him he writes really well and told him I’d read his stories and really liked them. He got upset and said I shouldn’t have gone through them that it was his personal stuff. I apologized and told him there was nothing embarrassing or anything it was very well written and that he hadn’t told me not to click on those tabs. But I apologized for going over it without having asked. He still seemed pissed off at me. Today its been eating at me and I would like to know if what I did was really that egregious before I see him. AITA?
YTA just do the project yourself Jesus Christ people are so helpless
It’s so funny that op says “they were really well written” as if the husband actually wrote them lmao. Those are generated for him he literally didn’t do anything.
Like actually
ESH you for snooping and him for polluting creative spaces with ai slop. Also, write your presentations yourself!
I’m with you. Also, I’ve never used chatGPT so maybe I’m missing something, but isn’t it weird for the wife to compliment the husband’s writing abilities in this situation? Like, if she was so impressed with the stories, shouldn’t it have been, “wow, chatGPT writes really well!”?
YTA. This is like reading someone’s diary or journal. It wasn’t for your eyes, and your husband I’m sure thought he could trust you not to go poking around. It’s a violation of trust. If you were curious, you could have asked what it was and asked to read it. And if he had said no, you have to respect that as well.
YTA – everyone who needs to be told not to snoop through someone’s stuff is in the wrong. He’s helping you out and you’re thanking him by going through his personal chats. Some people use chatgpt as a kind of self therapy – just as they sometimes use writing. So of course he isn’t thrilled about this situation.
YTA. It’s the same as if he handed you his journal and asked you to use one page, and you flipped through the whole thing. That’s a violation of trust.
also YTA for using AI instead of doing your presentation yourself.
Jesus what happened to using your skills and brain to do tasks. Do you seriously need a bot to do a presentation for you? YTA because ChatGPT is not a solution to fix laziness or critical thinking.
Massive AH. Would you have read his journal if you’d found that. What you did was a huge invasion of privacy. I wouldn’t be surprised if he stops writing for a while because of this. YTA
How do you know he’s a “good writer” if he isn’t the one doing the writing? Weird compliment to give someone who did not actually compose anything.
YTA for snooping. It would be very easy for you to just ask “hey, mind if I ask what those other tabs are about? The titles really caught my attention.”
ESH.
YTA because there was no reason for you to snoop. You just saw other tabs and thought, “Ooooh, shiny” and went through your husband’s personal things.
He’s an asshole because he’s using ChatGPT to write. I am not launching into my TedTalk, because that wasn’t what the post was asking about, but just pass on that he sucks too, and that he can write in other programs with more security. Especially since you’re nosy.
You both suck for using ai. Also for complimenting him on work he didn’t create.
First of all, if it’s on Chat GPT, he didn’t write it.
