Arnold Klein: I don't think you'll be able to distinguish between a human being and a bot. The most primitive version of this is already in email, right in Gmail. There are going to be use cases where it's okay and use case where it's terrible.
Economist and author Arnold Kling talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about the recent drama in the tech world--Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter, the collapse of FTX, and the appearance of ChatGPT. Underlying topics discussed include the potential for price discrimination to make social media profitable, whether you could tell Jeff Bezos from Sam Bankman-Fried early on, and the role of human beings in the world of artificial intelligence.
