One thing that’s quite interesting with the coming AI assistants is that you can treat them like shit and they won’t mind. :P
Not that I have a secret desire to treat people like shit, but sometimes it would be better if you could just say “no, this is all wrong, you need to start over and…” You can’t say that to an employee (very often), but you can to an AI.
Yet another way in which ChatGPT is already superhuman.
I actually do it so when the cyber revolution comes, maybe I will be spared (or at least eliminated painlessly)
I know its likely meaningless but it just feels…polite?
A dog bringing the journal is probably also one of these entities by the way.
First thing that came to mind is that when this technology becomes slightly more refined, malleable and commercialized it's very likely that the first people who lose their jobs are going to be customer support staff.
But those have been replaceable by well-trained chat bots for a long time by anyone who cares to take the time to train them.
The people you ask when you're actually facing a bug, on the other hand, look like they're going to be safe for quite awhile.
When skynet is born you will be first against the wall. ;-)
Seriously, though, I'm happy when I hear my kids say "Thanks, Alexa".
