What I haven't seen mentioned yet, and what greatly interests me, is the creation of semi-sentient messenger constructs. I don't have a better term for it, but although unsexy that covers it pretty well.
GPT-4 sure shows signs of sentience. Once fine tuning to a specific task becomes commonplace, you could conceivably finetune a LLM also to your own personality. Loaded up with specific knowledge+personality, this can then allow you to send people interactive messages.
A pseudo-intelligent construct that conveys your message, which the receiver can interrogate. And not just text. As this article shows it could well be a multi-modal talking head, to tickle the social centers of your brain and give things more (perceived) personality.
No longer spouting your requirements to the team over a boring video call; everyone gets your opinion as an interactive avatar, to query at will. I hope someone is working on this..!

- ben_w 4y agoRegarding terminology, Revelation Space has three levels of AI. Alpha: Sentient brain upload. Beta: A perfect but non-sentient mimic, trained on public info instead of a scan. It will pass the Turing test because the original would, but it is not truly sentient. (Except one of them manages to become sentient anyway, I think). Gamma: GOFAI chatbot.

Heh, now even when you do think of the edge cases to ask the product manager about in advance, the virtual model they send you instead of hopping on a call will say one thing (since they didn't give it an exact specific answer for that scenario) and later they'll tell you something else directly!
