Over the past couple of years, artificial intelligence has slowly but steadily been escaping the realm of fiction and clashing with the one produced by our mundane genuine human minds. The CNET example is hardly of any major consequence now, but its implications can make a world of a difference.. While technically merely a chatbot, the latter took the world by storm. It was developed by OpenAI and launched at the end of 2022.
The point is that you need not spend a lot of time pondering about the implications of AI and how we as a society approach it. A small exchange with ChatGPT will be enough to leave you with a sense of awe, or, at the very least, feeling very uncanny and concerned about your future job security. It is precisely big tech companies like Google that will ultimately determine how extensive a role artificial intelligence will play in our daily lives, as they will be the ones largely driving the implementation of said technology. With Google seemingly having no qualms about it, the process is bound to be interesting.
