I Prefer Asking People Instead

When I first arrived in Hanoi, I was tempted to ask ChatGPT for the best restaurants to check out.

But I stopped myself. Instead, I started asking the people around me, the girl at the currency exchange, people at the hostel, shopkeepers, anyone local.

We live in an age where I can ask ChatGPT pretty much anything. Questions I might’ve once asked a stranger or a friend, I can now type into a box and get an answer instantly.

And while ChatGPT gives amazing answers, I don’t want to lose the human part. Asking questions is a great way to start a conversation, build trust, or connect with someone new.
