Bing AI isn’t sentient. But it’s more than glorified autocomplete. How do we talk about — and understand — the power of today’s large language models? Then, Reddit’s C.E.O., Steve Huffman, on Section 230 and why the future of the internet lies with the Supreme Court.

Plus: Meta is charging for blue checks. 

On today’s episode:

• Steve Huffman is the chief executive of Reddit.

Additional reading:

• A Washington Post reporter asked Bing AI its opinion of Kevin Roose. Its response was eerie.
• Microsoft made changes to Bing’s chatbot capabilities after the Chatbot’s unsettling behavior with some users. The company is already loosening some of those restrictions.

• Facebook plans to sell “Meta verified” accounts.
