Drew HarwellThe robots aren't taking over. They're not falling in love. They're not feeling. They don't want to be alive. They're not evil masterminds. They create word patterns based off text on the internet. Is what journalists should be saying, not gee-whiz sci-fi LARPing about fancy autocorrect.
Dave@drewharwell I think this is completely true. I think the writing needs to be clearer on that.
But I also think we will see these word patterns have the potential to persuade humans to do things they shouldn't and wouldn't otherwise do, so it's also reasonable to write about the risks of wide-open use.
