It was reported in The Times that one of their workers has become convinced that their AI chatbot has become sentient. You may take that with a pinch of salt, but the full transcript is mind blowing. The Turing test is well and truly passed.

I was also able to use an app to write a completely plausible blog post about the current state of the watch market (with particular reference to Audemars Piguet and Rolex), in a few seconds. It would be worryingly easy to be reading auto generated content without realising it.

I’m also seeing extraordinary images created by DALL-E 2 on the basis of natural language descriptions. Some examples here…

It feels like we’re at a tipping point where this stuff will affect us directly, in ways that are hard to predict. I’m wondering if anyone else has been blown away by something AI related lately?
