I think this was a pretty responsible use case. I came up with my own well posed questions...there was a response...then I push back or drill deeper based on that response. There is no misrepresentation from me. I personally think it is a very good way to learn. I use it a lot to learn from various topics....it is sort of a much faster google search really. There once was time when one had to go to the library and look for index cards telling you where a certain book would be...then you could check out that book etc...this is quite a bit faster. I can also delve into questions I would never have time to go over were it not for this...In other words learn something I would never have the time for because now it is right there for me to quickly ask....and of course, there is my main usage right now...I am self teaching on a number of technical topics such as point estimation from stats, machine learning, and convex optimization. It is great for getting clarifications on parts that were unclear in the books I am using, but I mainly do all of the exercises on my ipad with an ipencil. Then I upload screenshots of my work to be critiqued...I am usually correct, but the bot can often show an alternative soluition that might be more elegant and that is all part of my learning and it gives me a competitive advantage at work.
