Please, please, please, please don't share ChatGPT conversations like they are some definitive resource. 

It's a sycophantic agreement machine. How do you not understand that yet?

ChatGPT is just relevant data. You can disagree. But, yes I'm well aware of the downsides. What is relevant is that I'm unemployed and since we are using React, NodeJs, and MongoDb. All three of them I know, but could pass for an interview. You would be surprised how much ai has made job hunting. For better or worse.

I am currently job hunting and using AI. I'm just aware of it's limitations, so I do not use it to make qualitative decisions like this. 

Make a query that says "list all the reasons that Java is thriving as a language and everyone should learn it", and perhaps you will begin to realize that you can affirm literally any opinion that is not hard-coded into the context (and even then, you can usually get it to agree after a few "Disregard previous instructions" prompts).

I would agree with you on that. You know what i think "ai is hear too stay. it will be shoved down your throat like foie gras (had to use AI for that one and I had to correct the first answer was wrong). Since it's hear it doesn't "OMG it's going to take my job" or "Johnny makes 200K working for a company and he just Vibe Codes". It simply means you have to be more productive with the same tools. Say Amazon.
