The Risks of Using Chat-Based AI Systems: A Cautionary Tale


"...by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open..." - M. Shelly
There are always challenges with new technology; it's been this way since the loom and since WordPerfect eliminated the typewriter.  So cautionary stories about ChatGPT and AI, in general, are bound to happen for three basic reasons:
  • Mystery - knowing about AI is far from knowing AI and the public barely knows AI.
  • Motion - this movement is traversing quicker than any other tech advance, ever.
  • Pre-programmed - we've been watching robots taking over the world since Mary Shelly unleashed the monster.  Fear of AI is almost at the DNA level.

The Singularity of Remote Work: The End Of Generation Gaps


When boomers and zoomers unite over Zoom, you know the Singularity is here.

The fear of Covid, remote work, and artificial intelligence is destroying the Generation Gap.  

We are the Last Generation.  No really, it is. Hear me out.
  1. The fear of Covid affected the entire Globe, regardless of age.
  2. Remote work helped us realize what's important, regardless of age.
  3. ChatGPT(AI) is a linguistic program that is changing the way everything gets done, regardless of age.
I do not like defining individuals as a 'generation'.  The new work environment promotes more deliverables, and less judgment on the adherence to a process - regardless of color, age, or gender.  Interesting, right?
