The rise of artificial intelligence has sparked concerns of job replacement. ChatGPT, a popular natural language AI, has been a revolutionary aid in writing, but academia has discredited AI-generated work. Ethical decision-makers must balance its benefits and risks to society.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog used OpenAI's ChatGPT AI chatbot to prepare his talking points, according to the company's CEO Sam Altman. However, concerns over plagiarism have led some institutions to ban the popular writing and research tool. During Altman's visit, he discussed the balance between AI's advantages and potential risks with Herzog, highlighting the need for caution. The OpenAI delegation is touring the world, meeting political leaders, entrepreneurs, academics, and businessmen.
The journalism industry faces ethical considerations over the use of generative AI in writing, with concerns over accuracy and disinformation. AI can be used for quick information gathering and PR work but is unlikely to replace human writers due to lack of trust. ChatGPT and other generative AI tools provide similar functionalities, but the technology is still disruptive and impractical, ensuring job security for industry professionals. David Fink, a leading figure in the tech PR industry, comments on the issue.
OpenAI's innovative research and development has led to the use of ChatGPT to pen an episode of 'Coronation Street'. The AI was only able to write half an episode and could not include certain topics. Despite the simplistic formula of the show, it is something humans should create for nuanced emotions, stakes and situations. Soap writers can rest easy, their jobs are safe from AI takeover.
