Do we actually want AI that seems human?
Do we actually want AI that seems human?
Chatbots are being made to act and sound like humans. That makes them easier to talk to, but there could be other consequences. As our relationships with artificial intelligence evolve, do we need to draw a brighter line between what is technology and what is us? Opinions columnists Josh Tyrangiel, Bina Venkataraman and Amanda Ripley talk about what we really want out of AI.
Read more on AI from our Washington Post columnists.
Josh Tyrangiel:
“Honestly, I love when AI hallucinates”
“Let AI remake the whole U.S. government (oh, and save the country)”
“College students are dropping out in droves. Two sisters could fix that.”
Bina Venkataraman:
“When technology of the future traps people in the past”
“Can AI solve medical mysteries? It's worth finding out.”
