[0] Depends how the AI part is presented. Explicit or obscured? Upfront or shady? For some people, that makes all the difference. I told my (non-technical) wife about ChatGPT when it came out, and she was revulsed. Not by the technology itself (which she couldn't care less about) but by its "feel". When I prodded deeper, her revulsion came down to "I'd feel cheated if I realized I've been interacting with a machine masquerading as a human". Not the machine itself, but the successful masquerading. I suspect she's not alone, and "being cheated" will be a visceral issue to a lot more people than the early money-grabbers and AI enthusiasts give credit for. > Another correction suggests the AI tool plagiarized. “We’ve replaced phrases that were not entirely original,” according to the correction added to an article on how to close a bank account.
