Funny- That’s like saying the iPhone is a nothingburger. Who would buy such thing right?
Or the internet? Who’d even want a computer at home to talk to other computers.
This is going to infiltrate every text-based tool. Email, social media, text. Speech and video already incoming.
- bena 4y agoYes and no. But you're putting forth a "Bozo argument" by noting that that people also shit on the iPhone. "But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown." - Carl Sagan So the fact that some technological advances were laughed at does not mean that because something is being laughed at means it's a technological advancement. Basically all you've done is say you disagree with the poster. But neither of you have given any sort of reasoning for your positions. Personally, I agree with your final conclusion. Even as a "fancy autocomplete", this thing is pretty fucking fancy. To toss ChatGPT a basic idea and get back a multi-paragraph text on that idea that only needs to be proofread is pretty choice. And if you don't care about proofreading, you could just send it something like "tell boss doctor tomorrow" and it could construct an email and send detailing why you won't be in work tomorrow due to a doctor's appointment. Human communication just got a bit more complicated.
