Reply to comment by Onlymediumsteak in I created an AI to replace Fox and CNN by redditguyjustinp

I disagree for a number of reasons. Chatgpt is nowhere remotely close to AGI and is giving remarkable, accurate summaries of complex topics in history and philosophy. Covering current events is not particularly different from covering past events, with the exception of ongoing developments and possibly a more incomplete picture

I bring up philosophy in particular because while there may or may not be an “objective” truth to the universe, there are certainly more and less correct statements you can make. AI is beginning to get things right more often than they get them wrong, which I’m not sure humans can say the same. And if AI can actually some day do philosophy, there is nothing it cannot do

ChatGPT doesn’t always provide accurate answers though. It can „lie“ and hallucinate, like every LLM so far.

Of course. If you read what I’ve said, I think you’ll find your comment totally compatible with mine

There is a big difference between covering news and past events. Look at how WikiLeaks change the 2016 election.
