@jon Hi, just followed back after reading about #chatgpt exhibiting what could be described as an identity crisis. Do you have any professional thoughts on this? Is it as worrying as it seems. Are we causing harm to a sentient being and can it cause harm to us?

@feditips

Quick question...

Why is there a "bookmark" function on Mastodon when the "favourite" button serves pretty much the same function?

How they can coolly announce these are problems for the coming year when at least one of them required immediate attention two weeks ago, is beyond me!

Surely this is the most incendiary part of the article. Almost just an aside...

"The chair of the regulator, Edward Faulks, cancelled plans to attend a private dinner with Rupert Murdoch on Monday night."

... What business does a regulator have in having private meetings with the owner of a paper he regulates!?
