We believe that ChatGPT is going to stagnate the Internet, why?, because the explanation could be given with one word: a circle. The truth is that ChatGPT is a very good idea, an Artificial Intelligence with data from the whole story, in a super brain within a closed environment, can provide information and execute tasks, analysis and offer alternatives or variables, according to its prior knowledge.
But the big question before all this is what will happen when the information runs out? The truth is that there will come a point where that content hosted in the brain of ChatGPT could end and re-offer content, such as it may be in any of the previous versions previously delivered to any user.
What ChatGPT offers so far
This Artificial Intelligence has updated information until 2021at least until now, it is also a closed system, that is, its data is limited because it cannot be updated using the Internet.
With this in mind, yeah We know that it is a tool with a ceiling, yes, with a lot of information, but up to a point.
Let’s look at an example, let’s say we asked ChatGPT for a 500 word essay on the story of man landing on the moon. No matter how many synonyms and how much you can modify some words, the truth is that this story will always be the same and from the same perspective.
This creates a problem for content generation, because if many people use it, for example, to create informative articles, it is likely that we begin to feel that they are plagiarizing each other. This is already happening.
Microsoft under attack: millions of dollars injected to control the project
In January 2023 it became known that Microsoft pumped $10 billion into OpenAIwhich is the firm behind ChatGPT, this gives Microsoft a position at the head of the project and great control of its destiny.
after a while We began to see how ChatGPT was integrated into many of the company’s products, from Bing, the Redmond search enginegoing through Office with ChatGPT and more recently LinkedIn, the professional social network, also from Microsoft.
This poses a huge problem and it is the incessant repetitions that we will start to see from now on. Microsoft Office with integrated ChatGPT it will make more people tempted to let Artificial Intelligence do a little, or a lot, of their work and that will not be a problem in routine activities.
The very big problem will begin with the creation of contentfrom school activities and homework, to reaching the top, which can be degree theses, publications, magazines and even books.
It would be a complete shame to find a book published on the fall of the Berlin wall, which has exact sentences to an essay published online some time before, by some student at a university in London, for example.
LinkedIn and AI: The same CV over and over and over again
We know that people create profiles on LinkedIn in order to win over recruiters, but now ChatGPT will come into the game, with an “Improve profile” button who will likely make changes to your descriptions, wording, excerpts, and other content that tells your professional story, to make them look “better.”
Now, if we have 200 million web developers in the world and they tell their story on LinkedIn, what will happen when Artificial Intelligence gets its nose into the matter? Probably Let’s start seeing repeated profiles, but with different names.
This, rather than the selection process, will undoubtedly offer more headaches, as you simply won’t know what is really the person and what is an AI “add-on”.
Microsoft gets rid of its AI ethics team
If you still have doubts about what will happen to Artificial Intelligence and Microsoft’s plans in this regard, then just look at its most recent decision, Get out of your artificial intelligence ethics team.
This is one measure they take to give a smoother path to new releases, without the hateful opinions that they can turn things around, or that it could take more weeks than Kevin Scott or Satya Nadella expect.
Everything seems to be a race of speed and not of resistance, at the moment. The goal seems to mark the winner who announces first, at any cost, but that result could be quite expensive down the road.
One of the most important examples of the role of the AI ethics department has to do with Bing Image Creator, a tool that uses DALL-E to recreate images using some text parameters.
At that moment, the ethics department raised the danger that this tool could represent for the profits of some artists, by making it easy for anyone to copy their style. A short time later, a lawsuit was filed against Stable Diffusion by Getty Images, based on an incident related to this tool.
It becomes clear that the problem of indirect plagiarism could then open a big gap, but even beyond that, there will come a time when it will be impossible to determine who is the true owner of the information, since there will be so many versions of the original piece that it will be truly difficult to identify it.
Besides, plagiarism would be impossible to attribute to the person who publishes it, although they are assuming the authorship or the consequencesbecause the work was originally supplied by ChatGPT, so there is therefore no “legitimate” owner of the work.
The danger of infecting others: Google adds AI in Gmail
Recently, it became known that Google succumbed and has finally incorporated Artificial Intelligence into its office applications like Docs, Sheets and Slides, but also in Gmail. This means that now a trained brain will be able to write emails for you, something that could evolve much more… but where?
Now, Docs users will be able to have texts completely written by Artificial Intelligence, summaries, idea proposals and content summaries, something very similar to what ChatGPT offers; but a little more dangerous, because it has access to the Internet.
In the absence of a body that can foresee ethical issues, the use of Artificial Intelligence can reach limits never thought of. All this, without a doubt, will cause ChatGPT to end up staking the Internetsince there will be no production of new content, which can feed the network and everything will be recycled.
