I don't expect ChatGPT to say true things. But I have asked complicated technical questions that it provided detail, correct and useful answers to. And I have asked other complicated questions and it's provided plausible sounding whole-cloth fabrications that it further gave references to.
Knowing human beings, this is the level of plausibility where people start to believe the thing. People aren't good at seeing plausible arguments as out-and-out fabrications.
So, yes, this is past some threshold despite being far from AGI. I mean, Google is probably pasted that threshold too but Google only gives existing websites (which can be filled with lies too).
