There, I disagree... I'd say it's about encountering information that confirms or debunks your own thinking. One acts based on confirmation or debunking of their thinking. As an example:When I was younger; if you did not like something you didn't engage with it. You went off and did your own thing.
On TV, there's an announcement that there's tons of tech jobs available. Person A wants a tech job, wanted it for awhile, and suddenly sees that announcement. The announcement confirms A's thinking that there's gotta be tech jobs available, and pretty easily. That info (from TV) is what spurs A into action, A applies to lots of jobs, hoping to land one.
But... why exactly is the announcement even on TV? Why TV and not a closer source of information? That's because there's someone (B) with an agenda. Because B has an agenda, B will put an announcement out on TV, and not more locally. B is in control of actual information about available jobs, and gets to decide how to look for people to fill those jobs. And yes, it will be B taking initiative and making decisions about where information is, and what information.
Point being, ChatGPT doesn't have agency like person B to make decisions about what information is available, where, and to who. ChatGPT only spits out information it has on hand.
Makes one rethink the idea about conversations being a turn-based thing...
