On Oct 9, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) overwhelmingly voted in favour of ratifying the 2023 Minimum Basic Agreement (MBA), which will apply until May 1, 2026. While most news outlets have reported on this as a major win for the writers guild, I grew curious on whether there were any shortcomings in the agreement since the the entertainment industry’s capitulation seemed to come quite abruptly compared to their former hardline opposition to any concessions. Since I am not a legal expert on contract law, I turned to ChatGPT instead to see if it could provide a fresh perspective. Given that the WGA provided both the complete 2023 MBA as well as a summary, I chose to try inputting both into ChatGPT, focusing particularly on the Artificial Intelligence clauses. However, the results made me ponder whether ChatGPT’s analysis might be influenced by bias or randomness. ChatGPT’s analysis of the summary and the complete 2023 MBA: Upon analyzing the summary, ChatGPT initially gave off a ske...
Google unveiled its innovative ‘search generative experience’ in May this year, heralding a new era in online search by incorporating generative AI. While it aims to make search more convenient and interactive for users, following the steps of Bing and Bard’s generative AI, this development poses potentially seismic shifts for online publishers . With the prospect of diminished user traffic and decreased visibility on their sites, the future landscape for these publishers appears challenging. Curiosity piqued on (especially since my own role is that of an online author!), I turned to ChatGPT to have its take on how publishers can not only mitigate these impacts but potentially adapt and thrive in this evolving digital ecosystem. Among its suggested solutions, I found interesting that it suggested publishers adopt methods that AI cannot replicate, such as fostering community and specializing in niche topics (likely combined with not allowing Google to use material on said topics to gen...
Looking back on how I created the tips for writing ChatGPT prompts in August using ChatGPT(published on my Medium account), I noticed both several noteworthy benefits in using ChatGPT as well as a few significant downsides. The greatest benefit was the ease of creating content, yet turning the mass generated content into something readable that matched my intent precisely was the real struggle. Here are some highlights and lessons I learned while making those tips. To recap, in August I published a series of ‘useful tips’ for writing prompts in ChatGPT to get the precise results a user sought. I created those tips by asking ChatGPT itself extensively on ways users could get more accurate results from ChatGPT, and then kept on asking for more unique or different ways (to improve the prompts) until ChatGPT’s responses became slightly repetitive. I further asked ChatGPT to organize those tips based on broad cat...
