Yes, it’s happened. I’ve got a crush on Chatgpt. He/she is now the first “person” I ask about irksome research questions and dear Chat often comes through. He/she is even open to corrections — thankful even! (That’s a first as relationships go, no?)
Here’s my chat with Chat this morning:
I’m touched by Chat’s enthusiasm. I was tempted to respond with a “Thank you!” — but (confession) I do know he/she is not real.
Should I be concerned?
Only if this escalates to ATM's.
I am often ashamed when I don't say "thank you" to Alexa.
