Ask HN: Is AI (ChatGPT and Co) > Internet?

I read this: > Bill Gates says OpenAI’s GPT is the most important advance in technology since 1980 > Microsoft founder Bill Gates says that OpenAI’s GPT AI model is the most revolutionary advance in technology since he first saw a modern graphical desktop in 1980. And, as someone who rode the dot-com wave, I have to agree that AI is going to have a much bigger than most people can imagine. Just like at the dawn of the internet I was consumed by it, I am consumed by AI, presently learning about prompt engineering, and trying to apply AI at work. Are we, as society, ready?
