A world where you never know if you're talking to another human being unless you're right in front of them.
You wouldn't be able to trust that it's your own mother on the phone. Every thread and chat may just be you talking to yourself through a pile of code. And god knows who that code's talking to. Photo, video evidence in court? Can't prove it's not real, your honor.
An artificial world. Everyone sequestered away into their own bespoke realities, separated by unbreakable walls of uncertainty.
How ?
i just type shit like 'list transgender people in history' in chatgpt or something else and sometimes it comes up with some interesting names i havent heard of before and are actually suspected to be trans in some random ass scholarly source in a different language
apparently the mughal ruling dynasty had a lot of people like that. wild to know
Aah, so it's a better google, neat
Ime, it's not better, just different and often worse. I think if you want to research anything in depth then you're better off with a traditional search engine.
I mean, seems like it's add/bullshit free by now
Yeah it can be used as that or a lot of other things. Its a sort of general purpose AI. But it does fuck up really basic stuff all the time so its important to fact check what its saying. But it can lead you down some interesting rabbit holes
