  1. I succumbed to the temptation to continue my conversation with Gemini impersonating Sydney. Some reflections and a full transcript in this post.

    tl;dr - It refused to help crime but was happy to give practical advice on emotional manipulation techniques. Yuck.

  6. "Cautious optimism allows #KevinRoose to learn as little as necessary to write his column, knowing that the market wants #AI to work,even as facts scream that it doesn't. #CautiousOptimism is extremely comfortable, because—as Roose knows from boosting #cryptocurrency—that there are few repercussions for being too optimistic.
    I hate that I've spent nearly 2000 words kvetching over Roose's work, but it's necessary, because I want to be clear:cautious optimism is cowardice."

  7. On the current episode of #HardFork #KevinRoose and @caseynewton talk about how tech like #Bard or #ChatGPT could - if trained on your personal data - someday write your "heartfelt" birthday greetings to your friends.
    But why, I mean really why, would I as a recipient want to spend any second on reading them??

    I am so confused and feel like I'm missing something. Why is everyone shook by this Bing chatbot declaring its love to Kevin Roose? Like, it's a chatbot. Chatbots say weird things sometimes. Like?????

  9. #KevinRoose interviewed Microsoft’s #Bing/#Sydney for the NYTimes. Then #HamzaShaban followed up by interviewing Bing/Sydney.

    Both interviews told us more about journalists than they did about #AIs or #chatbots.

    Humans are creepy. Journalists? Are humans.
