Paul Stenhouse: The internet is abuzz about a new AI chatbot - Saturday Morning with Jack Tame

The internet is abuzz about a new AI chatbot that is a massive step forward in computing 

It's impressive! ChatGPT has some of the biggest names in tech gob smacked with just how advanced it is. Built by OpenAI (a non-profit) and has indexed much of the internet, just like Google, but effectively has a machine brain on top of that. You can ask it to do things like write code or check code.. right the way through to ask it to write a news story. You can give it inputs, or draw on its knowledge, and even tell it what style to write in. 

You can ask it for business strategy ideas, write a poem in the voice of a pirate, or generate marketing copy. 

It's already having real-world impacts 

There is a dyslexic contractor, Ben Whittle, who has always struggled with writing business-style emails which has hindered his dreams of starting his own contracting swimming pool business. He was lucky to have a met Danny Richman who started mentoring him and helped him write these emails a couple of times a week. But now, Danny has turned to ChatGPT to write the emails for them based on some very brief inputs. Ben gets professional sounding and formatted emails whenever he needs them.
