The Difference between AI and AI: ChatGPT, Chatsonic, Hugging Face and a humanoid.

The Difference between AI and AI: ChatGPT, Chatsonic, Hugging Face and a humanoid.

Humanoid disclosure: AI Free: apologies if I offend anyone real, semireal or totally AI. For an AI sensitive article please see the AI edited version.

I am busy with an interesting exercise. Posing the same question to different chatbots. Analysing my emotional state whilst engaging with another stranger I noticed a slight pang of guilt, I grabbed my answers and ran back to ChatGPT. The slight difference in feel and language is of interest - I am sure there will be a lot of research opportunities for social researchers/android anthropologists.

I found that asking both ChatGPT and Chatsonic for innovative and original solutions to my query did not deliver anything of value. So I am guessing that humans still have the edge for now. One can deduct from this very limited exercise that machines work from the past (human inputs) and can't be innovative or original in certain areas. I will be testing the limits on this one. Apparently the Chats can create scripts etc (Chatsonic is very commercialised whereas ChatGPT has an academic feel, it's not in your face marketing).

With Chatsonic you know you are engaging with a "call centre agent" type personality - strictly speaking you can actually choose a personality type from stand up comedian to philosopher for your AI. Chatsonic has a great vibey interface (very pre-covid maintain attention at all costs and give millions of options).

It's personality is different to ChatGPT - bouncy ADD kid (think Transformers) vs temperate, conservative, sleek slightly scary movie AI (think HAL).

The other chatbot I looked at is Hugging Face. That is for the Linux crew who can code without breaking things. I am signed up but had no idea what to do except hunt tabs. Full disclaimer - I have no coding or software skills and I keep IT awake at night being one of those idiots who break simple processes.

What I am proud of is having access to ChatGPT whilst many complain they can't get in due to demand. Am even ahead of my millenial son who knows it all haha.

Being quite good at spotting trends - this is a very obvious one and will do better than Discord, Metaverse et al with far more realworld applications being apparent.

It is going to be hugely disruptive especially in education - who really needs teachers now? The existing school format will need to change regarding content delivery - teachers will be there to help with social bonding norms, supporting learners emotionally. Teachers will not have to do much actual teaching apart from typing skills - pray tell why havent schools got that as a compulsory skillset. Stuff being taught is of very little value. (Referring to South Africa that is).

I will run this article past my AI editor and see what it says. For the gender sensitive what pronoun are we allocating to AI?


Humanoid disclosure: AI Edited Version of above - spot the differences:

I've been conducting an interesting exercise recently, where I've been posing the same question to different chatbots and analyzing my emotional state while engaging with them. I noticed a slight pang of guilt when interacting with some of the chatbots, but I felt more comfortable and at ease when returning to ChatGPT. The slight difference in feel and language is of interest and I believe there will be many research opportunities for social researchers and android anthropologists.

I found that asking both ChatGPT and Chatsonic for innovative and original solutions to my query did not yield any valuable results. This suggests that for now, humans still have the edge when it comes to innovation and originality. It's also worth noting that ChatGPT has a more academic feel compared to Chatsonic, which is more commercialized.

When interacting with Chatsonic, it's clear that you are engaging with a "call center agent" type personality. You can even choose a specific personality type for your AI, such as a stand-up comedian or philosopher. Chatsonic has a great user interface, but it's personality is different from ChatGPT. It's more like a "bouncy ADD kid" (think Transformers) compared to ChatGPT's more "temperate, conservative, sleek, slightly scary movie AI" (think HAL).

I also looked at Hugging Face, which is geared towards Linux users with coding skills. As someone who has no coding or software skills, I found it difficult to navigate and understand.

Overall, I believe ChatGPT has a lot of potential and will be hugely disruptive in many fields, especially education. The current school format will need to change in terms of content delivery and teachers will be needed more for emotional support and social bonding than for actual teaching. This is particularly true in South Africa, where a lot of the content taught is of very little value.

As for the gender sensitive issue, it's worth noting that ChatGPT is a machine and does not have a gender. So, it's up to the user to decide which pronoun they want to use when referring to the AI.
