And Bernstein; rumours of his death are much exaggerated. The pair were in London for the Ivor Novello awards.
There was a "report" by ChatGPT, followed by a vague question about the impact of AI text-generators on reporting. ChatGPT didn't ask questions.
The interviewer was evidently in awe of these two men; his sycophantic remarks punctuated the interview, and left the interviewees with not much to say. They also took away momentum from the interview.
I didn't detect it; I would have guessed that it was from a Wikipedia article. WP articles about living people are generally non-critical and uncontroversial. The interviewer said (after reading it out) that it was ChatGPT. The author detected it presumably because he prompted ChatGPT to produce the report himself.
I'm sorry that my comment confused you so much! But if you were convinced that Bernstein was dead, I'm not surprised that you were confused.
- refulgentis 3y agoOmg!!! I even “double checked”, like I could have sworn I saw a death date on his Wikipedia. Thanks, yeah, that solved everything lol. Cheers
