Chatbot Revolution Brings Promise and Perils of AI
-
Generative AI chatbots like ChatGPT are exploding in popularity, reaching over 100 million users in just 2 months due to their ability to have natural conversations.
-
These tools can write content, create images, audio, and video, make recommendations, and assist with tasks like planning travel itineraries.
-
However, there are concerns about biases, privacy, false information, and misuse that need to be addressed through regulations and ethical guidelines.
-
To use chatbots effectively, you need to learn "prompt engineering" - how to have a good conversation by asking clear, specific questions. Garbage in, garbage out.
-
While AI chatbots are impressive, they lack human judgment and nuance. Consider them "copilots" to enhance human abilities, not replace them.
