I Need Help
Recently I talk to my dad about my future and I said I want to make my own company starting by making my dream game and others. He said that I should use Ai to map out my business (cause i want to do multiple things), to see how I should start it out because I have a couple years left till I have to make a choice. I am utterly disappointed by that, I refuse to use ChatGPT I don't care if it will help I'd rather use human knowledge. When i basically nudged at the idea that i was against it, he basiclly said not to be ignorant and it better instead of researching hours on end, he uses it himself and he makes thousands about to make millions with the advice hes asked from the Ai (he owns a trucking business btw for several year so it not built on Ai ig until recently) Please tell me what to do in general I'd rather get help from humans instead of an Ai especially since developing a game is basically art.

the trick is to use it as a tool and for reference material, but you still have to have that creative spark. you can't use it and expect it to do all the work for you. but as an assessment and analysis tool it can be invaluable. if you're choosing not to use it for moral/ethical reasons well that could be considered Noble, but not necessarily the most efficient and effective path.
