I interviewed ChatGPT as if it were a human; here’s what the AI had to say that gave me chills

Artificial intelligence software is growing quickly in popularity, especially among tech companies. This has led to many wondering if this is the end of human interaction as we know it, and some are fearful that these AI robots could begin taking away jobs from you and me.

By now, you may have heard of ChatGPT, however, you may not know exactly what it is. Put simply, it’s a computer program developed by the artificial intelligence laboratory OpenAI that simulates human conversation and provides helpful and informative responses.

Think of it as Google on steroids. Except with Google, you do a search and then have to sift through all of the search results for your answer.

ChatGPT does the thinking for you and gives you a specific response to your question.

Here are a few examples.  Are the answers perfect?  No.  Are they pretty good?  Definitely.

Write a birthday poem to my mother who loves chocolate, walks on the beach and reality tv

Chat GPT answer:

To my dearest mother, on your special day, I send my love and wishes your way. May your birthday be filled with joy and cheer, And may your heart be light all year.

You love chocolate, walks on the beach, And watching reality TV without any breach, So let’s indulge in your favorite things, And make this day a memory that sings.

We’ll walk along the shore and feel the sand, And feel the sea breeze on our skin so tanned. And when the day is done and we’re feeling low, We’ll cuddle up and watch your favorite reality show.

As we share laughs and stories old and new, I’ll cherish this moment with you. And though the years may pass us by, The love we share will never die.

So here’s to you, my sweet and loving mother, May your birthday be a day like no other. With love and blessings from your child, Whose heart is filled with gratitude and smiles.

The lunch was fantastic, and I had a great time catching up with you. It’s always a pleasure spending time with you, and I’m grateful for the friendship we share. Your company and conversation always leave me feeling uplifted and inspired.

And the polo shirt you gave me is just perfect! It fits me perfectly, and the color is so flattering. I’ve already received so many compliments on it, and I know it will become a staple in my wardrobe. I’m touched by your thoughtfulness and your ability to choose the perfect gift.

Thank you, John, for making my birthday extra special. Your kindness and friendship mean the world to me, and I feel truly blessed to have you in my life. I look forward to many more great times together.

In a matter of seconds, ChatGPT spits out a response that would have taken you much more time and thinking to figure out, and it might not have been as comprehensive. However, with all new technology, there are pluses and minuses.

I asked ChatGPT what some of the worst effects on the human race could be by using AI robots, and it answered me just as a human would which freaked me out even more.

ChatGPT’s answer:

There are several potential negative impacts that AI, including language models such as myself, could have on society. Here are a few possibilities:

• Job displacement: As AI becomes more advanced, it may be able to automate many tasks that are currently done by humans, which could result in job loss.
• Bias and discrimination: If AI systems are trained on biased data, they may perpetuate and even amplify societal biases in their decision-making.
• Lack of transparency: AI systems can be difficult to understand, which could make it hard for people to know how decisions are being made and to hold AI systems accountable.
• Security risks: AI systems can be vulnerable to cyber-attacks, which could compromise sensitive data and cause other problems.
• Dependence: If people come to rely too heavily on AI systems, they may lose the ability to make decisions and think critically for themselves.
• Privacy concerns: The collection and use of personal data by AI systems could raise privacy concerns and could lead to the abuse of personal information.
• Lack of regulation: The rapid development of AI technology may outpace the ability of society to regulate it, which could lead to negative consequences.
• Lack of public understanding: If people don’t understand how AI systems work, they may be less likely to trust them or use them effectively.
• Ethical dilemmas: AI systems may be used in ways that raise ethical questions, such as in military or surveillance applications.
• Decrease in human interaction: Increased use of AI systems could lead to a decrease in human interaction, which could have negative effects on mental health and well-being.

ChatGPT says: It’s important to keep in mind that AI has the potential to bring many benefits to society, but it’s important to consider the potential negative impacts and work to mitigate them.

 

• Reduction of human error: tasks could be done more efficiently and with fewer mistakes as AI is designed to complete everything accurately
• Take risks over humans: whether it be traveling to outer space or trying to diffuse a bomb, we can use AI robots to take risks so that human lives do not have to be at risk
• Available at all times: humans can only work for a certain amount of hours in the day, while AI robots can continue the work without any breaks

What are your thoughts on the use of AI? We’d love to hear from you.
