Talking to ChatGPT for the first time is a surreal experience
Even in this short introductory “chat,” we were impressed by the natural, dare we say, human cadence and delivery of ChatGPT’s “savvy and relaxed” Sol voice (which reminds us a bit of ’90s Janeane Garofalo). Between ChatGPT’s ability to give quick responses–offered in milliseconds rather than seconds–and convincing intonation, it’s incredibly easy to fool yourself into thinking you’re speaking to a conscious being rather than what is, as ChatGPT says here, “still just a computer program processing information, without real emotions or consciousness.”

Great and not great at the same time. This could decimate entire industries.
