Perhaps a little too elegant, precise, and clear... wouldn't it be deliciously ironic if this blog was written by chatgpt?

  ChatGPT is sometimes precise and clear, but I've yet to see any writing come out of it that I would describe as elegant. It tends toward the mediocre-college-essay end of the writing quality spectrum.

  In my experience, chatgpt is incredibly wordy / verbose. This doesn't read as chatgpt output at all.

  I went ahead and put in this prompt to ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com/chat https://chat.openai.com/chat): ==================== > Write a press release from the FTC that warns companies to be careful of promises using "AI". ==================== FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FTC Warns Companies to be Careful of Promises using "AI" Washington, D.C. - The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is warning companies that use artificial intelligence (AI) to be careful of making promises that they cannot keep. The FTC has received reports of companies making misleading claims about their products or services that use AI, leading consumers to believe that they are getting something that they are not. AI has become an increasingly popular buzzword in the business world, with companies eager to capitalize on its potential benefits. However, the FTC is concerned that some companies are using the term "AI" in a misleading or deceptive way. This could be seen as a violation of the FTC Act, which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce. In particular, the FTC is concerned about companies that make claims about their AI products or services that are not supported by evidence. For example, a company might claim that its AI-powered product can make accurate predictions about future events or can diagnose diseases with high accuracy. If these claims are not based on sound scientific evidence, they could be deceptive and potentially harmful to consumers. The FTC is urging companies to be transparent about the capabilities and limitations of their AI products and services. This includes being upfront about how their algorithms work, what data they use, and what kinds of errors or biases might be present. Companies should also be cautious about making sweeping claims that cannot be substantiated. The FTC is committed to protecting consumers from deceptive or unfair practices, including those related to AI. Companies that make false or misleading claims about their AI products or services could face legal action, including fines and injunctions. Consumers who believe they have been misled by a company's claims about its AI products or services can file a complaint with the FTC at ftc.gov/complaint.

    My God, we finally found a constructive use for ChatGPT. "Rewrite this government bureaucracy's muddle-by-committee-legalese document into something that sounds like it was written by a human."

      I asked ChatGPT to summarize the article (prompt was "Summarize the following article in 10 sentences"): > The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has issued a warning to companies using the term "artificial intelligence" in advertising, highlighting that some AI products might not work as advertised. The FTC stated that AI hype is playing out in many products, from toys to cars, and chatbots, and companies should ensure they are not making false or unsubstantiated claims about a product's efficacy. The regulator is asking companies using AI in their advertising to ensure that they are not exaggerating what their AI product can do, promising that their AI product does something better than a non-AI product without adequate proof, or are aware of the risks. Additionally, the FTC is asking if the product actually uses AI at all, noting that merely using an AI tool in the development process is not the same as a product having AI in it. Advertisers should refer to the FTC's earlier AI guidance, which emphasized fairness and equity while cautioning against overpromising what an AI-based tool can deliver.

Slightly obnoxious too … specially the last sentence.

They did say “new-fangled” though.
