Creating the feature means it's no longer misinformation.

The bigger issue isn't that ChatGPT produces misinformation - it's that it takes less effort to update reality to match ChatGPT than it takes to update ChatGPT to match reality. Expect to see even more of this as we match toward accepting ChatGPT's reality over other sources.

How many times did a salesman sell features that didn't exist yet?

If a feature has enough customers to pay for itself, develop it.
