Will ChatGPT make Quora obsolete?
Last Updated: 28.06.2025 09:23
It’s by showing the symbiotic relationship we have with AI tools like ChatGPT. Tools like these cannot think for you. You have to do the thinking. Then communicate with these tools. Then the tools will behave like your assistants.
That’s by using AI to win the debate defending AI.
The legendary works published by writers throughout history were crafted with the help of assistants. It’s just that AI solves the problem of hiring human assistants. Now we can have our own assistants for free (or for tiny subscription, coz… capitalism).

Alfred is Batman's butler, mentor, and moral compass. He provides emotional support, wisdom, and logistical help, acting as a human companion who ensures Bruce Wayne remains grounded. The relationship is deeply personal and rooted in trust and loyalty.
ChatGPT will not make Quora (or any other platform) obsolete.

Just like Alexander the Great being tutored by Aristotle.
So I replied to her texts with this:
Meta-Joke = A Joke about Jokes
Can you share any "backstage pass" experiences you have had at concerts?
Amanuenses: Many famous writers employed assistants responsible for taking dictation or copying manuscripts. For example, John Milton, who was blind, dictated his epic poem Paradise Lost to amanuenses, including his daughters.
Before we proceed, you should be aware of the prefix Meta.
Meta-Learning = Learning about Learning

Well, well, well.
A couple of months ago, I received these texts from one of my followers on Instagram:
But how does this meta-fication prove our point?

A vizier obviously has more knowledge than the king. But it doesn’t make him more capable than the king. The vizier helps, but the king makes the call. Just like AI is more potent than a human, but it doesn’t make it the main element.
Although, this level of comparison isn’t totally valid right now because what we are dealing with currently is Generative Artificial Intelligence and not Artificial General Intelligence. There’s way more to go for us to reach that level.
What if all of this is being written by an AI?
Well… now we’ve put forth our chess move. That’s half of what it takes to win a debate.
Meta-Discussion = Discussion about Discussion

How many downloads does an iOS app need to get into the top charts in education?
As you will see, this crazy little idea would help her win this debate competition against 20 other teams (even though she had less than 12 hours to prepare) and will also answer your question. So stay with me.
So the crazy little idea was to make the debate Meta.
Nah, I’m just kidding.

Tony Stark (Iron Man) has an AI moderator: Jarvis.
I was already occupied with a lot of work, but I had this crazy little idea that made me throw away everything else and glue myself to this moment.
Alfred supports Batman on a personal and ethical level, whereas Jarvis is more of a technical and operational assistant for Iron Man.

In ancient kingdoms, viziers were senior advisors to the king or emperor. They handled state affairs, offered counsel, and executed the ruler’s directives, much like a modern-day chief of staff.
Or was it?
Now, you’re about to experience a little heist we pulled.
Now it was up to her to perform well in the debate.
Meta-X = X about X
Now, concluding my answer to your question:

Alright.
I totally disappeared from the face of Quora more than a year ago. And I reappear abruptly, out of thin air, talking about AI. Uncanny, isn’t it?
What if this answer itself was written by ChatGPT? What if I trained ChatGPT on all of my Quora answers and taught it my language, tone, and way of writing?

This is what she replied with:
There’s an effective way to trap the opponents—by using our attacking argument as the defending argument—the symbiotic relationship we have with AI tools. Using the same attacking and defending argument will trap the opponents by rendering them off of any additional points to counter.
Calm down. It’s Sunny this side.
Why do most people care so much about what others think? Are they afraid of society norms?
That’s it. There isn’t much of a significant difference. Both superheroes work at the same creative level.
So, I asked her to roughly formulate what the potential moves of her opponents might be.
Jarvis (Just A Rather Very Intelligent System) is an artificial intelligence that assists Tony Stark (Iron Man) with a wide range of tasks, from managing his suits to offering tactical advice. Jarvis represents advanced technology, providing efficient, data-driven assistance without emotional nuance.
Another great historical reference would be that of Viziers.
So, basically, for her to win the debate competition, she would need to prove that AI (tools like ChatGPT) does not hinder the art of creative thinking in humans.
Well… No.
Hahaha.
Let’s make things even more meta.
ChatGPT is like Dr. Watson to Sherlock Holmes. Alfred to Batman. There’s even a software called Alfred for Mac systems. I personally use it. There’s a reason why it was named Alfred. It proves that in this modern world, you don’t need to be a billionaire like Bruce Wayne to have your personal butler.
That’ll be done by bringing forth the historical term Amanuenses.
The next day, I received her text:
Or am I?
Even if the greatest novel writers didn’t have ChatGPT back then, they did have somebody special around them who sparked ideas like a catalyst in a chemical reaction. But today, we don’t need to rely on another human for that. We can rely on Generative AI.
Bruce Wayne (Batman) has a human moderator: Alfred.
So this answer was not written using AI.
I collected every point I had discussed with her in Instagram DMs and fed those points to ChatGPT, asking it to lead them to a final conclusion. Furthermore, I asked it to create a PDF of the conclusion points and send it to me.
The other half? — It’s to counter the chess move put forward by the opponents.
I can’t explain the joy that ran through my nerves seeing we were able to pull off such a heist.
I sent this PDF to my follower and asked her to use the same conclusion points to conclude her debate:
I’m coming for you, humans.
The thing is, ChatGPT existed in history—but in human form. People were creative back then because of a moderator in human form. Today, we don’t need a human moderator. Creativity will be maintained in the same way.
Viziers:
Generative AI is just autocorrect on steroids. To put it simply, its main job is to predict the next word. That’s it. Although it does that thing so brilliantly that it helps us create stuff, there’s no way it would make Quora or any other creative platform or job obsolete. It’ll just reduce the labor work that doesn’t require creativity. So, if your job is pure labor and doesn’t require you to be creative, AI will probably make it obsolete. It’s always better to switch to being creative. Not only would it be engaging and healthy for your brain, but you also wouldn’t feel threatened to lose your job.
This analogy summarizes my point best:
To achieve feats that are greater than us, we need a greater level of assistance.
Or is it?
Is this AI as Sunny? Or Sunny as AI? Or just AI?
I would never use AI to write a Quora answer. I’ve got a different kind of attachment with Quora. Quora was the first platform I started creating content on. I’ve got a special corner for the people on Quora who have been reading my answers.
A sort of Meta-AI thing.
