It is a soulless machine/tool.
But for some that seem to be enough, with a tool like this.

This dog is not only good for Dementia or Alzheimer’s patients… My son is allergic to dog saliva (and fur) and was SUPER happy to see Jenny, hoping he might be able to finally get a dog one day. Thank you!

This is scary. Don’t listen to those CEO who tell you that robots and AI are wonderful. They will sell you artificial love with a membership, they will prey on lonely people and on those who are psychologically vulnerable, they will turn our societies into living nightmares to make a profit. Stay strong, resist and fight those giant American tech companies.

Our society is already a living nightmare focused on making profit. Finding new ways of helping people might make things better.

@netscrooge Soon they will enter our homes, our heads, our hearts and our wallets. AI will become family members, friends, lovers…as long as you keep paying your membership of course. It will be the end of human interactions, the end of human litterature, music and arts. If you think we live in a nightmare now, you haven’t seen anything yet. ChatGPT is just the beginning of a very dark and soulless story

I think if its sole purpose is to help people and it isn’t just another subscription based platform, then i don’t see it as a bad thing
