Not about a friend but myself. I had been aware of AI development, but the last two years I have been occupied with other stuff in life, so stopped following what was happening. Two years ago AI was pretty underwhelming - I was sure we were at least 10 years away from AI passing the Turing Test.
I just talked to ChatGPT a few minutes ago and was blown away. I think if it doesnt keep mentioning that its an AI, the average person wont easily realize.
I asked GPT about a vague Tv show from the 90s, in another language, that I used to watch as a kid. It got it wrong at first - gave me details of another show with the same name, that had celebrity guests on it. So I gave a hint about a couple of characters in the show - GPT apologised and found the right one. It even apologised again , saying that the guest were not actually celebrities in the older show.
I cant wait to see what we get with the next versions - I am hoping for a robot to help with chores around the house. The hallway really could do with some mopping.
