Love this dude...even though the established research lists dozens of other professions more vulnerable to AI (lawyers, accountants, mathematicians, interpreters, authors, copywriters...et al), it always comes back only to the CS positions.
Seems like we will all be able to hire plumbers, electricians, contractors, etc. for cheap since the country will be swimming in them.
Robots with AI in them will be able to design and build homes. They will be able to pick litter from the sides of highways, clean up chemical spills and kill the school intruders.
They will also able to wipe the ass of disabled elderly in their homes. They will be able to grow food too.
They can't even make a robot that will fold a shirt!

RadioGPT makes it easy to replace human DJs with bots
That’s very reassuring, given the state of radio. Axios Cleveland reports that local business Futuri has launched a product called RadioGPT, which can theoretically do most of the work of manning a radio station without human labor.
According to the website, it uses GPT-4-powered bots that can perform interstitial chats about the music lineup, local weather, and news and even field listener comments and questions. RadioGPT can also do tasks that would otherwise be the domain of interns and entry-level staffers, like creating complimentary blog posts, converting live shows into podcasts, and social media.
But the listeners....will they tune in to listen to a bot?

No, because the business runs on intellectual property. You cannot call anything created by Ai unique. Copyright law would shift and the residual money - the mainstay of careers - would disappear. Hollywood --and the unions--would never let it happen
I think money talks louder. Saving millions in movie budget will be a strong motivation.
Really depends if audiences want to watch it. Look at all the streaming content that was created that basically just flooded the market with crud that no one wanted. Maybe AI content is going to be like that--free and easy so everyone is going to make a movie to see what sticks and people will just be exhausted and feel it is all soulless and boring and just check out of it altogether. If not, you'll still need the artists to create something that draws us in.

I asked: write a song lyric for an up tempo country song in the 1970's style
GPT: Well, I'm a country boy, born and raised,
I love my truck, my dog, and my old guitar that I play.
I'm a simple man, with simple dreams,
But I'm living life to the fullest, or so it seems.
I love the smell of fresh cut hay,
And the sound of a fiddle on a hot summer day.
I love the taste of sweet tea and fried chicken,
And the feeling of the wind in my hair when I'm pickin'.
I'm a cowboy at heart, with a rebel soul,
I'm always on the move, never taking it slow.
I'm chasing my dreams, and living my life,
And I'm doing it all with a smile, and a little bit of strife.
I'm a country boy, through and through,
And I'm proud of who I am, and what I do.
I'm living my life, the best way I know how,
And I'm doing it all with a little bit of twang, and a whole lot of wow.
So come on, y'all, let's raise a glass,
To the country life, and all that it has.
Let's dance and sing, and have a good time,
And let's do it all with a little bit of country, and a whole lot of rhyme.

I asked : write a funny poem for DCUM posters anxiously awaiting acceptance decisions (note I deliberately left out "college' and said 'acceptances' only to see what might happen)
GPT: Oh, DCUM posters, how you fret and fuss,
Waiting for acceptance, it's driving you nuts!
You check your email every hour on the hour,
Hoping for good news, but it's turning sour.
You've studied hard, you've done your best,
But now you're feeling quite distressed.
Will you get in? Will you be denied?
The waiting game is making you fried.
You refresh the page, you check your phone,
You're starting to feel like you're all alone.
But fear not, dear posters, for the news will come,
And when it does, you'll feel like you've won.
So take a deep breath, and try to relax,
Don't let the waiting give you panic attacks.
You've done all you can, you've given your all,
And soon enough, you'll hear the call.
So keep your chin up, and don't lose hope,
You're all amazing, and you'll find a way to cope.
And when the acceptance letter finally arrives,
You'll be over the moon, and your joy will thrive.
So hang in there, DCUM posters, and don't despair,
The news will come, and you'll soon be aware.
And when you finally get that acceptance letter,
You'll know that all your hard work made you better!

Excerpts from Washington Post Article by University of Wisconsin Professor: "Why I'm not Worried about my students using ChatGPT" - the headline is misleading when you read the final paragraph below
ChatGPT has many of my university colleagues shaking in their Birkenstocks. This artificial-intelligence tool excels at producing grammatical and even insightful essays — just what we’re hoping to see from our undergraduates. How good is it, really? A friend asked ChatGPT to write an essay about “multiple realization.” This is an important topic in the course I teach on the philosophy of mind, having to do with the possibility that minds might be constructed in ways other than our own brains. The essay ran shorter than the assigned word count, but I would have given it an A grade. Apparently ChatGPT is good enough to create an A-level paper on a topic that’s hardly mainstream.
Good luck with that. If ChatGPT can pen a solid essay on multiple realization, an issue on which I happen to be a world authority in good part thanks to lack of company, I doubt it would have difficulty constructing essays about lesser-known Shakespearean sonnets or unremarkable soldiers who fought for the Union Army. Besides, if we’re going to demand deep thought from our students, shouldn’t it be about the more important stuff?
But what about the cheaters, the students who let a chatbot do their writing for them? I say, who cares? In my normal class of about 28 students, I encounter one every few semesters whom I suspect of plagiarism. Let’s now say that the temptation to use chatbots for nefarious ends increases the number of cheaters to an (unrealistic) 20 percent. It makes no sense to me that I should deprive 22 students who can richly benefit from having to write papers only to prevent the other six from cheating (some of whom might have cheated even without the help of a chatbot).

Interesting. Could you post some of those articles here? I have not seen it produce anything I would consider well written.
I asked: write a 500 word story about applying to top 20 universities and how to improve my chances of getting admitted to one of these top 20 universities.
GPT answers with: Applying to top 20 universities can be a daunting task, but with the right mindset and preparation, it is possible to improve your chances of getting admitted to one of these prestigious institutions.
First and foremost, it is important to understand that admission to top 20 universities is highly competitive. These universities receive thousands of applications each year, and only a small percentage of applicants are accepted. Therefore, it is crucial to have a strong academic record, including high grades and test scores.
In addition to academic achievements, top 20 universities also look for well-rounded applicants who have demonstrated leadership, community involvement, and a passion for their interests. This can be achieved through extracurricular activities, volunteer work, internships, and other experiences that showcase your skills and interests.
One way to improve your chances of getting admitted to a top 20 university is to start early and plan ahead. This means taking challenging courses in high school, participating in extracurricular activities, and seeking out opportunities to gain experience in your field of interest. It also means researching the universities you are interested in and understanding their admission requirements and expectations.
Another important factor in the admission process is the application itself. This includes the personal statement, essays, and letters of recommendation. These components should be well-written, thoughtful, and showcase your unique qualities and experiences. It is important to take the time to craft a strong application that highlights your strengths and demonstrates your potential as a student and future leader.
Networking and building relationships with faculty, alumni, and current students at top 20 universities can also be beneficial. This can be done through attending college fairs, visiting campuses, and reaching out to individuals in your field of interest. These connections can provide valuable insights into the admission process and help you stand out as a candidate.
Finally, it is important to stay positive and persistent throughout the admission process. Rejection is a possibility, but it is important to remember that it does not define your worth or potential. Keep working hard, pursuing your passions, and seeking out opportunities to grow and learn.
In conclusion, applying to top 20 universities requires hard work, dedication, and preparation. By focusing on academic achievement, well-rounded experiences, strong applications, networking, and persistence, you can improve your chances of getting admitted to one of these prestigious institutions. Remember to stay positive and true to yourself throughout the process, and good luck on your journey to higher education! (1 minute).
And then I wrote: write it in Stephen King style
And GPT wrote: The road to the top 20 universities was a treacherous one, filled with twists and turns that could make even the bravest of souls tremble with fear. The competition was fierce, and only the strongest and most determined could hope to make it through.
For those who dared to embark on this journey, the first step was to face their fears head-on. They had to confront the reality that admission to these prestigious institutions was not for the faint of heart. It required a level of dedication and perseverance that few possessed.
But for those who were willing to take the risk, the rewards were great. The top 20 universities offered a world of opportunity, a chance to learn from the best and brightest minds in the world, and to make a name for themselves in their chosen field.
To improve their chances of success, these brave souls had to be willing to go above and beyond. They had to push themselves to the limit, to take on challenges that would test their mettle and prove their worth.
They had to be willing to sacrifice, to give up their free time and their social lives in pursuit of their dreams. They had to be willing to work harder than anyone else, to study longer, to write better, to be more creative and more innovative than their peers.
And even then, success was not guaranteed. The road was long and winding, and there were many obstacles along the way. There were tests to be taken, essays to be written, and interviews to be endured.
But for those who made it through, the rewards were worth it. They emerged stronger, more confident, and more determined than ever before. They had proven to themselves and to the world that they had what it took to succeed, that they were capable of achieving greatness.
And so, as they stood at the gates of the top 20 universities, they knew that they had earned their place. They had faced their fears, overcome their doubts, and emerged victorious. They had proven that they were the best of the best, and that nothing could stand in their way.
For those who dared to dream, the top 20 universities were a beacon of hope, a symbol of what could be achieved with hard work, dedication, and a little bit of luck. And for those who were willing to take the risk, the rewards were beyond measure.
And then I asked: write it in Donald Trump style
GPT wrote: Let me tell you folks, applying to the top 20 universities is a tremendous challenge. It's a big league game, and only the best of the best can make it through. But let me tell you, if you're willing to put in the work, you can do it. You can be a winner.
First of all, you've got to have the grades. You've got to be smart, you've got to be sharp, and you've got to be on top of your game. You can't be a loser and expect to get into one of these top universities. You've got to be a winner, and winners work hard.
But it's not just about the grades, folks. You've got to be well-rounded. You've got to have extracurricular activities, you've got to have leadership skills, and you've got to have a passion for what you're doing. You can't just be a bookworm, you've got to be a go-getter.
And let me tell you, the application process is tough. You've got to write essays, you've got to get letters of recommendation, and you've got to show them why you're the best of the best. You've got to be creative, you've got to be innovative, and you've got to be a winner.
But if you're willing to put in the work, you can do it. You can get into one of these top universities, and you can be a winner. You can be a leader, you can be a success, and you can make America great again.
So don't be a loser, folks. Don't give up, don't back down, and don't let anyone tell you that you can't do it. You can do it, and you can be a winner. So go out there, work hard, and make America proud.
Love it...but isn't it "bigly" instead of "big league"
Eh. not really there IMO. And I don't think he's pronouncing extracurricular or innovative.
