Appreciate the enthusiasm. So, uh, at nine a.m. on December 16th. Um, so hard. What are the questions we should be asking about?
Speaker 2
Uh, I come to this question not really as a trend forecaster or somebody who's worried, uh, about the future, but really somebody who's interested in anthropology and the opportunity that AI affords us to self reflect on what makes us different than robots. So as AI becomes more sophisticated and more capable of passing the Turing test, it reveals the extent to which most of the time our thoughts, feelings, and, um, scripts could basically be written by GPT, if not written better, uh, by a robot. And I think that that is distressing. Uh, a lot of people have, have sort of taken to this point and Nate Silver said that, um, one of the upsides of GPT is sort of that it will reveal how mediocre we are.
