Hi, Robot: Intercom interviews ChatGPT
This week we sat down to have a conversation with OpenAI's ChatGPT – our first-ever synthetic guest. ChatGPT remained composed, professional, surprisingly witty, and nothing less than fascinating.And no offence to all our amazing human guests over the years, but we were very excited to find out what this particular interviewee had to say for itself. From its famous hallucinations to what it talks about when out in a bar with some of its fictional AI pals like HAL 9000, ChatGPT was (mostly) happy to discuss it all.Transcript: https://www.intercom.com/blog/videos/intercom-interviews-chatgpt/For the purposes of this podcast we gave ChatGPT a bit of presentational assistance – bringing its answers to life with the help of Murf's audio generation. But the answers, insights and sentiments are all ChatGPT's.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
