You Were Supposed to Be this Colossus

So I thought I'd give ChatGPT a shot at the whole miracle pill thing.

This is what I got:

The phrase "miracle pill with the chocolate coating" is typically used metaphorically and isn’t tied to a specific, real-world product. It usually refers to:

1. A Difficult Truth or Hard Solution Made Easier to Accept

Much like how medicine is sometimes coated in chocolate or sugar to make it more palatable, the “miracle pill with the chocolate coating” represents a tough but necessary remedy or truth that’s been made easier to swallow—often in the form of a persuasive message, attractive packaging, or emotional appeal.

2. Marketing Gimmick

In marketing or self-help contexts, this phrase can point to a too-good-to-be-true solution—a product or idea that promises miraculous results, dressed up in appealing language or visuals to get people to buy in without question. It’s the kind of pitch that sounds irresistible, but the “miracle” often doesn’t live up to the hype.

3. Pop Culture or Satirical Usage

It has also been used in pop culture (e.g., in movies, books, or songs) to satirize consumer culture, quick-fix mentalities, or the way society seeks instant gratification.

If you’re referring to a specific product, book, ad, or quote, feel free to give more context, and I’ll pinpoint it more precisely.

(Emphasis mine.)

I have to give *you* context, ChatGPT? That's cheating. You know it's been used in pop culture, so explore a little bit more. You were supposed to be this colossus; this great legendary thing, and yet he gains.

Sure, I understand the LLM concept that the more I put in, the more I get. But it's interesting that ChatGPT just comes up with these generalities. OK, so it's been used in pop cultre. You can't give me any examples? I don't understand why.
