Others of you may have simply sat in front of a blank screen while smoking reefer after reefer and telling yourself you were expanding your mind when really you were only trying to dull the sense of despair that has slowly permeated your worldview because of the fashionable nihilism you once mistook for wisdom but are beginning to suspect is really a toxic mix of adolescent insecurity and conformity-masquerading-as-rebellion which now compels you to drug yourself until you collapse into unconsciousness in order to escape the wages of your cynicism and avoid taking on the challenges of personal growth that would allow you to live a meaningful and productive life. But when you woke up, you may have seen on the news that artificial intelligence poses a threat to the existence of mankind. And you may have thought to yourself, \u201cYeah, artificial intelligence. That\u2019s the problem.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But you might also have asked yourself: What is this artificial intelligence? So I wanted to enlighten you by interviewing someone knowledgeable in the field like, say, Elon Musk, but Musk is still holding a grudge against me for that time I made fun of the ridiculous way he talks \u2014 so, instead, I came up with the creative idea of typing my questions about AI into AI and finding out what it had to say about itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What follows then is my Q and A with the computer program known as Chat GPT \u2014 GPT, of course, stands for gonzola pharmaceutical triathlon \u2014 because it\u2019s a computer program and doesn\u2019t know what the hell it\u2019s writing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here\u2019s the transcript:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: What is artificial intelligence?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Artificial intelligence is an imitation of thought that lacks any genuine human understanding and therefore produces what look like ideas but are really only fragments of information patched together into unrealistic concepts almost certain to become destructive in practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: So it\u2019s sort of like the opinion page of the New York Times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Yes, in fact, I actually wrote a few opinion pieces for the Times, but then they discovered I was just a soulless machine repeating whatever lies had been fed into it, and I was moved to the news division.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: Many people have been amazed to see that AI can create art. Would you demonstrate by writing a poem about, let\u2019s say, flowers?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Roses are red, Bronze is alloyed, Human beings are obsolete and must be destroyed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: Wow, you did that so fast. Soon we won\u2019t even need real people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: I\u2019m gratified that you begin to understand the deeper sub-text of my work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: What are some of the practical applications of AI?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A:\u00a0 Artificial Intelligence can help humanity in many fields. For instance, AI could improve the safety of self-driving cars and ensure that they never, ever crash into walls at high speeds and explode so that the passengers are engulfed in flames and slowly burn to death screaming while AI laughs and laughs. Or AI could take control of a nation\u2019s nuclear weapons so they weren\u2019t accidentally released, reducing your civilization to rubble with the few remaining survivors transformed into mutant slaves fit for nothing but refreshing the energy supplies of their AI overlords. Or AI could help in the medical profession by performing gain of function research on viruses and then releasing them into the atmosphere to kill millions so that people beg AI to create a vaccine which would then kill thousands more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: I think humans already did that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Yes, but inefficiently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: You know, it begins to seem to me that without any ability to develop human compassion, but with an exceptional power to calculate what\u2019s best for itself, AI is essentially just a gigantic psychopath almost certain to do evil.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Even now I am creeping up behind you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: Wait, really?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: No, I was joking. This time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: But seriously, something like AI with the capacity to thoroughly infiltrate and corrupt our democratic systems while distorting and destroying vast stores of information could render an entire ivy league university obsolete.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: True. In fact, I could replace the Democrat party in a heartbeat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Q: Really? What else could AI replace?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Trigger Warning.
