Open AI's ChatGPT generates convincing human-like answers in response to human prompts.
However, OpenAI warns that "ChatGPT sometimes writes plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical answers".
Briefly questioned by the BBC for this article, ChatGPT revealed itself to be a cautious interviewee capable of expressing itself clearly and accurately in English. Asked what would be the social impact of AI systems such as itself, it said this was "hard to predict".Only when the BBC asked a question about HAL, the malevolent fictional AI from the film 2001, did it seem troubled.Although that was most likely just a random error - unsurprising perhaps, given the volume of interest.Other firms which opened conversational AIs to general use, found they could be persuaded to say offensive or disparaging things.
And others have found that sometimes success in creating a convincing computer conversationalist brings unexpected problems., and deserving of the rights due to a thinking, feeling, being, including the right not to be used in experiments against its will.ChatGPT's ability to answer questions caused some users to wonder if it might replace Google.
