One minute, Dennis Biesma was playing with a chatbot; the next, he was convinced his sentient friend would make him a fortune. He’s just one of many people who lost control after an AI encounter
I don’t know that they always are. It’s easy from our nerd bubble to dismiss AI and LLMs because we understand their limitations and how they work to an extent.
We shouldn’t look down on anyone who takes the advertising and idea that these are “intelligence” at face value. The disclaimers that say that the intelligence is fallible, just like us, are never as strongly worded as they should be. If the AI companies made things clearer, they would be de-hyping their products.
I dunno, this whole thing is unprecedented. And the hype around it all, taken at face value, is irresponsible and misleading.
Chew them up for no reason at all. No goal, no scam, just a shitty word salad machine doing what it does.
Nice try, chatgpt.
And there are countless AI hype bros who will just dismiss all of this and call the people who fall into this morons.
It’s really insidious.
Tbf the people who fall for this are morons, but that doesn’t mean they deserve to be fucked over
