Except it doesn't think. It has no thoughts. It is just responding to a prompt. It doesn't have a will of it's own.

You can say that about anything. "If we grant these calculators too much power"

That is an entirely different issue than the one laid out by the OP. ChatGPT responses are bad vs ChatGPT responses are malicious.

A virus can freely self replicate. ChatGPT can't do that.

Because it does not and cannot act on it's own. It's a neat tool and nothing more at this point. Context to that statement is important, because the OP is implying that it is dangerous because it could act in a way that dose not a

I get and agree with what you are saying, but we don't have anything close to actual AI. If you leave chatGTP alone what does it do? Nothing. It responds to prompts and that is it. It doesn't have interests, thoughts and feelings.

It also makes it harder to terminate. Yes the us is at will, but most orgs do not want to fire someone without cause. Wrongful termination is a thing.

Because operational security. Why give adversaries info about your capabilities.

I think part of the problem is a lot of people either lost these skills or never had them to begin with. So it's something that is perceived as a complex time consuming task. And it is; if you are doing it on a large scale. Most people

Why limited it to old devices? If I buy it I should be able to run my own software if I want.

Or just require students to use software that keeps track of version history or require spyware installed.

It makes far more sense to do something like that in space instead of in the atmosphere. You could spread the missiles out a little before ignition. But you would also need some kind of swarm logic and tracking to make sure they don't

I have the spam filters set to the max on my phone. I was getting 10+ text messages a day and 2-5 calls per day. Someone was using my number to sign up for things. The best one was enabling Google call screening. It has completed cut out al

We don't get to cash that check, the next generation does. Just like how we cashed it from our parents, and our parents cashed it from their parents. We have far more leisure time than our parents did, and way more than our grandparent

This is a non-issue. Millionaire are far more likely to have a accountant/tax professional. Which would of course means they would have all the required documentation at the time of filling. What would be interesting is the percentage
