Article title:

Top US Army General Says He's Letting ChatGPT Make Military Decisions

Body text

“I’m asking to build, trying to build models to help all of us,” he said, adding that he’s using ChatGPT to help make military and personal decisions affecting the soldiers under his command.

These are not equivalent statements. You can take input from a subordinate, or from a military history work, doctrine manuals, or Google, or ChatGPT in making a decision without having them make that decision.

Exactly. 'chatGPT told me water boils at 100°' is not the same as 'chatGPT told me I should drink tea for breakfast'. Its not clear how big the influence was though..
