Microsoft execs purportedly had "misgivings about the timing of ChatGPT’s launch."

    I know the ethics behind it are questionable especially with the way they implemented but honestly for the time when they first started testing it, I really enjoyed watching it break and it be rude/passive aggressive. Like it was clear it wasn’t ready at all but it was so funny. When it was breaking I would just sit there having fights with it over random bullshit. That’s what made it feel more “real” more than anything else.

    In the future if my AI chatbot doesn’t have an option to add some bitchiness to it, I don’t want it. I need my AI to have some attitude.

      Interesting angle! I can see the need for both - maybe there’s room for a snarky option??

        maybe. maybe an ai bot that just argues with you would have some potential. like, argue with this AI instead of a random person online kinda thing

          This reminds me of a Monty Python skit: https://youtu.be/ohDB5gbtaEQ
